Hand primer is a couple of quid to change.
Could be the seal around the fuel filter housing, take it apart clean it with brake cleaner and goo it back together with silicone - again a couple of quid. Could be leak off pipes - again a couple of quid to change. All things considered you might have to spend upto a tenner
