have you tried to nip up the side seal bolts, both back side and front, sometimes this is enough.

another fix that sometimes works is run the fuel tank to nearly empty then add a tea spoon full of glycerine, available in small amounts from chemists. this can swell the seals so stop the leak. cheap fix if it works, it did for mine.

I've got a pair of brand new seals for £5 inc postage if they're any use to you. Not sure what the two nuts are for but they came in the same box of spares so you get those for free :)
