Default Fuel Leak

Has anyone had to replace the quick connect/check vavle on the bottom of the tank where the fule line connects? The bikes have been setting in the garage for about a week now and went I went out there yesterday and opened up the door there was fuel under my Softail. I traced it up to the fuel line where it connects to the check valve. I unplugged the fuel line from the quick connect and the leak stopped. Any thoughts on replacing the quick connect/??
