Did it def say "filter" or was it "filler" if it was filler I could imagine if you look underneath at the back of your fuel flap it could be starting to corrode there

I may be wrong though, these may indeed have a rear filter

Nissan X-Trail fuel leak (2001-2007)
Some cars built between June 2000 and November 2004 had fuel leak issues. The fuel tank filler tube is susceptible to rust around the mounting bracket. This has been known to create a small hole and cause fuel to leak during the refueling process. - See more at: http://www.whatcar.com/car-news/common-nissan-x-trail-problems/1201363#sthash.MACgBPuj.dpuf

Hope it helps.
