I'm thinking with that volume of leakage the problem has to be the float valve. It's either deteriorated or there's some debris in there preventing it from sealing and therefore allowing a siphon from the fuel tank. The carb needs to be removed and dismantled to get to the valve.
The visible area of leakage is where the fuel found a way out of the carb.
edit: Art beat me to the punch
