Mariner outboard gas leak at connection

[tjakobic]

I have a 85 hp and the gas is leaking from the male connection. How would I fix this and if needed replaced how do I squeeze into the area to get it out? The gas leaked when priming the ball as well.

Here are some pictures of what I am talking about. Can any one help?

It looks like the pin on the male connector is tilted. Does this matter?

Can any one tell me if there is a good way to take out the male connection if I need to?

well my thought is with a set of tools. But I would replace the female fitting first, those have O rings in them that get hard and leak.
