Default 3.8 Leaking gas

My moms Lumina 3.8 is leaking gas from a quick connect fitting. I haven't put too much though into fixing it yet until I asked here. I told my mom not to drive it.

Can it be a gasket in the fitting? Maybe an o-ring, if it has one? Do I need to replace it?

Any suggestions?
