As I understand it the electric fuel pumps regulate the fuel pressure and therefore don't need a fuel return.

Sounds like the needle valve on the float bowl in not shutting. If this happens fuel will come out the over flow pipe.
What pressure fuel pump are you using, as it should be quite low, only 3-5 psi I think.

Exactly what Darrell said. Either valve not shutting to too high pressure pump fitted.
