I finished claying the car while the puddle grew. The fluid is running down inside the rocker panel. It is not overfilled, so that's not it. I should have put some sealant around the ends of the sensor and pump just like LugNut did in his write up on this fix. I have to fix it or nearly a gallon of fluid will be on the garage floor.
I don't think the topsider will work as the hose will not go around the bend in the filler neck.
I fixed my WW tank with a product called "Seal-ALL" from GOOP ( bought it at NAPA Auto Parts ).
That was 6 months ago and it's still holding. I also added the big metal washer for support at the bottom of the tank.
( Matter of fact, the washer is now part of the seal, I just gooped it all up real good around the washer and tank. )
