Volvo gas tank leak S70

Hello everyone!

My 1999 S70 is leaking gas from somewhere at the top of the tank. It's dripping down on the filler tube side. I took the access panel off in the trunk and found gas on top of the pump. I took it to my indy Volvo guy and he replaced the Fuel-sender and pump to the tune of 500.00 for the pump. The tube taking fuel to the fuel filter was also replaced.
Now the leak has started again and in the same place. Leak only happens when I let the car sit on a full tank overnight. What's left to be fixed here? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated before I contact the mechanic. I'm trying not to get shafted with another $800.00 repair bill.

Thank you.
