## Discrepancy

(CAN) AFTER LANDING AND ENGINE SHUTDOWN, SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING OUT OF THE INTAKE AND EXHAUST AS WELL AS FUEL LEAKING ON THE TARMAC. INSPECTION CONFIRMED A FUEL LEAK FROM THE BYPASS DUCT AND LATER IDENTIFIED A LEAKING FUEL MANIFOLD.  THE MANIFOLD WAS REPLACED WITH THE LATEST CONFIGURATION BEFORE THE ACFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
