Default Washer Fluid leaking

So I went to add some washer fluid this morning and it all leaked out on the street. I looked under and couldnt see anything as there is a cover on the wheel base. I would assume this is some sort of hose problem? Can I get to it by removing the air filter cover just to the left of the washer fluid container?

Thanks!

I had a leak just like this; I pulled the air filter housing, and then removed the 1 nut that held down the w/washer bottle. There's 2 snap-on connectors for the washer pumps, and 2 hoses. Pull those off, then take the bottle out and fill with water. There you can find the leak. I had a lower washer pump/motor leaking. I bought a new one cheap enough from the autoparts store; it came with the washer pump rubber grommet and the pump too. I put it all back together with no leaks! It's not as hard as it might seem, once you have the air filter housing removed.

Have you checked to see if it is leaking under the rear carpet? I had a leak going to the rear washer.

x2 leak in cabin going to rear washer. I cut my rear line in the engine bay and tied it in a few knots/kinks then taped it in place (rear wiper mechanism is frozen, anyway.. too lazy to fix it).
