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).
