Leaking in the Area of the Fuel Pump - 1990 244DL 200

Hello-

I have a 1990 244DL. I have found a leak in the area of my main fuel pump. I am having difficulty identifying exactly from where it is coming. I removed the 3 bolts that hold the housing for the pump and filter so I could get a closer look. Fuel is dripping at a rate of about one drop per second from the yellow wire going into the pump. It doesn't appear to be coming from the check valve above that wire. It looks like it is coming from the area where the wire connects to the pump and dripping off of that wire.

There are no issues with the car starting or running. Anyone else have this issue? Should I assume the fuel pump needs to be replaced?

Thanks!

Rob
