300sd leaking fuel-any ideas

I just noticed that my 85 300sd is leaking fuel. The car has been parked for 2 days and this evening, while in the backyard, i smelled fuel. I went to the car and there is a large circle under the car where it appears some fuel had leaked out. The underneath of the car looks wet but it always has because of an oil leak. It isn't alot of fuel. The cirlce is probably 2ftx2ft. There is no puddle but you can definately tell there was fuel leaked. Any Ideas?
Thanks,

Thanks Tex.
The leak is in the front. I will take it by my mechanic and get it fixed with the valve adjustment.
We appreciate you guys and this site.
