2001 Volvo S60 T5 gas odor/leak, and access to fuel line

The issue we are having at present started as a strong gas odor on the outside of the car, particularly on the passenger (right) side.
We took it to a mechanic who is not really familiar with Volvo's but he was able to determine that there is a leak in the fuel line. Through his checks, he noticed that the leakage appears to be coming from the fuel line that runs above (or on top of) the fuel tank. He was not sure how to access that area without having to pull apart the exhaust system and drop the fuel tank.
We are going to take the 2001 Volvo S60 T5 to another mechanic who is supposed to know about these cars, but I wonder if you can provide information about how to access the fuel line in this area for inspection and repair.
Thank you for any guidance you can provide!
