Odyssey FL350R / Fuel leak

So heres where im at, Ive been tinkering with my ody, but all cosmetics  i just havent had a chance to get to the mechanical stuff,

How ever i do notice when i start it and let it run for about 15 minutes, and shut it down i get a abnormal amount of fuel dropping out of the bottom and it will drip for hours on end, its not a "leak" rather a drip. but a noticeable smell. that being said i do live in canada and i know often in winters we will get minor oil drips from our vehicles just from gaskets skrinking before the bolts, could it be something like this and ive already checked out the fuel over flow line and its not coming from there.

any idea's?

I wish i would have joined earlier, my suggestion being a pipe fitter and working with fasteners every day, you could find a different sized bolt of the same tensile strength and sheering point of the old bolt to replace it, Do you have a photo of the old bolts?

there are small indicators usually on the head of the bolt to show the over all "strength" of the bolt.

Evening gent's

So last week end, i picked up two fl350r's my first ever, i gave one to my brother and kept one my self. both run and have there minor issues, i probably paid to much but up here in the great white north they are hind to find. all that aside.

Im looking for a new harness for mine, right now it has the stock honda harness, now im no racer but i know a 20 year old harness probably dose not have the same strength as it did in the 80's (after all the buggie is older then i am)

Now what im looking to find is something preferably a 5 point because i do plan on pushing it a little harder then i should. (after all half the fun is rebuilding it) But looking over the forums i cant figure out what to get, keeping in mind im planning on keeping the stock bucket seat for now but upgrading one day.  with all that being said money inst a issue toys can be repaired a human life cant be. (sucks the canadian dollar took a shit kicking so most of this is almost twice the price of what they show)

Any answer will be well accepted thanks!
