It looks like the spot in the picture is just a chip in the side of the case that holds the bottom insert. You can put a drop of water on the spot to see exactly where it bubbles from.
Sorry I took so long to reply. I've been out of town and away from the Internet. It's a big leak if I take the bottom panel off I can see I giant stream of fuel spewing out, and it looks like it comes from the spot where the circle around the valve meets the base?
