GASOLINE leaking out of manifold onto floor

I donno what the **** is going on but...

My car is up on jack stands in the front...

1 ran car with egi fuse out to kill Fuel Pressure
2 removed UIM hose to secondary rail and pulled rail sent off injectors
3 pulled primaries out of the rail in the car to send off for cleaning...did not disconnect any hoses to the rail

pull my turbos to port and while waiting to put them back on, i noticed over the past few days, gas has been dripping out of my exhaust manifold onto the floor it has soaked up over 6 rags completely and is smelling up my house...how the hell is there fuel coming out of the exhaust what do i do!? how do i clean this? how do i stop it

is it possible that this is fuel that had leaked into the rear rotor by the leaky injectors BEFORE i pulled them out....and now that the turbos are off i am experiencing the car deflooding onto the floor?

Loosen your gas cap. Fuel and air is expanding in your tank and pushing fuel up the line.
