What is the history of the airplane before and on the last
flight? Was is parked with the fuel valves OFF or ON?
Several years ago the aircraft showed the same symptoms - on that occasion
the leak was due to a fractured primer line.
Prior to the last flight there were no know issues.
Aircraft is always parked with fuel selectors ON, but following the leak the
right hand fuel selector has been turned off to stop any more leakage.
Personal investigation would be difficult - it would require removal of the
cowling (which presumably the engineer has done). If the cowling isn't
removed, then the only place you can see anything is via the oil filler
flap - which lets one see very very little.
