The secondary bowl seems to be leaking gas from the top.

I stole this pic from someone else's thread, but it is coming out of the little round piece on top that looks like a plug. right above the LL on Holley

Any thoughts?

That's the back side of the needle seat. The seat screws into the hole that the plug blocks off. Odd that it leaks. You could always try to seal it with some JB Weld on the outside; I believe that JB Weld is resistant to fuels. I wouldn't try to fix it from the inside, though.
