## Discrepancy

(CAN) AS THE PILOT WAS DOING A WALK-AROUND CHECK, HE NOTICED A SMALL FUEL LEAK FROM A DRAIN HOLE UNDER THE RIGHT HAND WING.  FURTHER INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THIS LEAK WAS DUE TO CHAFING ON THE TUBE AGAINST THE SPLIT RING INSIDE THE SPLIT CONNECTOR.  TUBE PART NUMBER 82820083-003, AND SPLIT WASHER PART NUMBER 3659-6-9.  PART TC:  24,481.
