Could come from one of several areas. You must remove the tank shielding to get to the real source of the leak. Most likely leaking from the access flange that is bolted at the lower aft tank wall. Take the cover off. Could be something simple, could be a royal pain in the butt!

Did you recently fill the tank? If you remove the tank bracket, you should have access to inspect the fuel lines at the bottom of the tank.
