I don't know if you need the accumulator or not, maybe not because its much lower pressure if you're still using the G60 management, etc. What fuel pump are you using and where is it located, etc? Might be that you need the accumulator after all, but its not related to the fuel leakage.

ive fit a gti pump wth bracket under the car and ive checked all the connections are right i just dont know what to try
If all the connections are right, then its possible you've got a blocked breather - I assume its the one within the rear wheelarch?

is it possible to block off the small breather pipe and just use the large one ?
There's only one breather, there is no small and large one. Check the pipe connections by comparing it with the parts diagram. The breather part is the same as a carb fuel tank anyway. (The only variation is if the car has a carbon canister). The large pipe you think is a breather, might be the fuel filler neck overflow pipe. On the GTI there is a small breather pipe near the top of the tank, which goes up into the wheelarch, into a breather device, then a tube goes down again and clips onto the edge of the tank.

I can't see why your tank would overflow fuel, or leak it out of a breather, since its a negative pressure in the tank.
