Here's a picture of an Andair GAS500 fuel  bowl showing the nice little nozzle created by corrosion all the way through the  bowl.  The pilot was complaining of fuel smell.  The plane is a Legacy  that started flying in 2003.  It has about 500 hours.

  

 Before the corrosion got all the way  through, the inside of the bowl had a small, shiny, unanodized patch where the  corrosion started.  The outside looks perfect except for a small black  speck where the hole comes through.

  

 Check carefully!

Makes you wonder why glass was so popular on the ol' VW bugs back in the 60's...they were aircraft engines too!!  Only problem is they would hit a bump, break the bowl them you had VW bug flameboomy!! I'm surprised that this happened on an Andair, their product is usually much better thought out and engineered. If you can get them to respond to you
