The tank in my 850 is leaking somewhere from teh top. I've noticed it when teh tank is between 3/4 and full, with the leak dripping down the side, somewhere near the filler tube, or above. The car has been in for teh recall, so presumeably, that is not the problem.

I'm planning on dropping the tank this weekend to fix it, and I'd love to have whatever parts are needed on hand, so I can fix it right then, instead of waiting until Monday to go to the dealer (who may likely have to order parts). Is there a "most likely" suspect for this leak, such as the in-tank fuel pump seal?
