740 -88 Leaking fuel hose

There is some fuel leaking from the hose located next to the fuel tank on my Volvo 740 GLT -88b. I don't think it is a hole in the tank but have not been able to take a closer look.

When I called the local Volvo-dealer I was told that the whole armature in the tank had to be replaced and the cost for that and the work would be about 4000 sek (~500$) .

Do you think there is some cheaper way to fix this, I wont spend that kind of money on this old car?

A fitting is probably loose.

Inspect the hoses and connections, and tighten it if that is the case.

It could be a worn hose.

Doubt it is what the dealer said (rip off).
