Why would gas pour into the air filter?

Answer

Pour? The only time I've seen gas pour into a air filter is in a boat. The fuel pump in a boat unlike a car has a line running back to the air filter so that if the pump goes bad you dont fill the bottom of the boat with gas.

If this is in a vehical you may have a timing condition. Try and locate the source is there a line coming into the air filter near where you see the gas? Trace the line.
