Pressure Washer Fuel Pump Leaking?

I tried to clean the carb on this used washer, but afterwards I have this leak out this fuel pump(?). Is this supposed to function as an overflow somehow or does this piece need to be replaced? It does look in rough shape.

Fuel hoses can eventually wear out and leak, plus those type of clamps aren't the best. You could try putting on a better hose clamp. Or replace the hose, or both.

Thanks. It’s actually not the hoses that are leaking but gas bubbling out of the (formally) white piece. The manual says it’s a fuel pump. I’m going to try and replace that piece and see how it goes.
