Default Gas coming from under car when filling

I wen to the fill the Vette up the other day and to my surprise I see a river of gas coming from under my car. Stopped filling it up immediately and looked under the car. Gas was coming out at a good pace then stopped. I know these cars have two tanks but what do you think the problem could be?

Default Gas Laking when filling the car

Got the Vette in the air, I got out a 5 gallon gas tank and started filling, to my surprise no leak, I can see where fuel ran down under the driver and passenger sides tanks. When I tried to duplicate, nothing.

Default

had the same problem with my 2002, was the loose clamps on the 2" rubber hose crossover between the tanks.
