## Discrepancy

(CAN)   AIRCRAFT LANDED NORMAL SHUTDOWN.   FUEL WAS NOTICED DRIPPING FROM ENGINE PAN DRAIN.  BOOST PUMPS TURNED ON TO CHECK FOR STATIC LEAKS.   FOUND SUBJECT LINE DRIPPING FUEL AROUND 'B' NUT. NUT WAS CHECKED AND WAS TIGHT.   LINE WAS REMOVED AND INSPECTED AND A CRACK WAS FOUND. CRACK RUNS ABOUT 1/3 OF THE CIRCUMFERENCE OF THE STEEL TUBE AT THE BASE OF THE FLARE.
