Thanks, Luke. I thought I only saw it coming from one tube. And that tube ran up to the tank. But I'll look it over more carefully. Thanks again.

You might want to make sure which pipe is leaking the gasoline.  If you leave the petcock on, and don't have the fuel manifold vacuum assembly in place (goes between the petcock and the carbs), you can expect the carb float bowls to overflow, and you should see fuel leaking from each of the overflow tubes on the carbs themselves.

I don't recall my CB750L having a vent tube on it, so it may have the vent function handled by the gas cap.

Pictures would help.
