Default car leaking gas?

i was coming down the highway, doing about 65-70.. keeping it slow.. and all of a sudden i smell gas, like not just.. gas. but it smelled like a ******* gas station..

so i try to make it another mile.. and my car just basically dies.. it starts sputtering, the rpms got lower, i downshifted, pushed the gas a little, and nothing.. just basically ran out of gas.. so i pulled it to the side, got out, looked.. and theres a gas trail for probably along while. lol

what could it be?

the motor is a jdm b16a.

Well, I had a mad fuel leak after I installed my intake manifold and found it to be my fuel injector O-rings. If you didnt touch anything, it could be anywhere. You should get out and smell to see where the source of the fuel leak is.
