Fuel leaking

I seem to have fuel (propane vapor) escaping from a valve next to the seat, just after the tank connection. Any ideas? It almost looks like a relief valve of some sort. I have pictures, but not sure how to post.

Thanks,
Jeff

If the valve is in the primary fuel line it is a pressure poppet that is either defective or the LP tank is overfilled.
