Default Fuel leaking from Fuel Pressure Regulator/Gauge

I have a 1993 b16 in a 1997 Integra GSR, which here in the pics you can see the fuel mods but my problem here is a severe fuel leak where gas fills up the gauge face and then spills onto the supercharger and the block. I need this fixed ASAP!!! Thanks for any help

Replace the gauge? And also, Im pretty sure most of these gauges attach to your fuel filter...Ive never seen one like that.

Proper Torque is a must, I couldnt get mine right for awhile....But he said it actually fills up the gauge face...Not just leaks around the threading...Could it still be the oring?

Yikes, I say pull the gauge for now. If you already have the FP set you shouldn't need it on all the time anyways.

I am inclined to think the actual gauge is broken.

I pulled the Gauge off and plugged it with a screw and teflon tape. I had one of my Honda Tech's take a look at it here at work they said it should be fine with a FPR installed. Yeah, the gauge was filling up with gas. Should I just buy another B&M Gauge or is there anything better out there on the market? BTW, like the setup there?
