Gas Leak Problem FJ1100

I have a problem with a fuel leak on my 85 fj1100. There is a hose that goes from the right side of the carb and goes to the ignition igniter on the left side of the bike and it is a consistent drip. I am wondering what would cause fuel to flow freely from the carb to the module. Over a period of 6 hours, my tank leaked out two gallons through this problem. Would it be as simple as a carb rebuild kit? A gasket problem? No idea where to start.
