And which of the over 5000 variation of a Briggs engine is leaking gas. Without model number info we have no idea what your engine looks like or where to start guessing the origin of the gas.

Probably the carburetor is leaking. Use a flashlight and your hand to locate leak.

I just had a CR950 the other day that would appear to leak gas from the fuel bowl when the tiller that the engine was attached to was tipped forward. The tank actually had a 1 inch long crack about 4 inches from the carb.
