..well it could have been a lot worse.
Walked in to check on my fermenter and noticed a strange beery smell and the towel it was sitting on was pretty damp and smelly.
Somehow less than a litre has leaked out of the fermenter someplace.. I gave the tap an extra turn, hopefully the tap itself is not leaking through the spout. Should I be worried about beer fermenting wild yeast around/under the fermenter/in the tap now?
I didnt notice any leakage when I sat the fermenter there.. but I do spray a fair bit of starsan around the tap so maybe I just missed it.

Na don't worry. Just because stuff is coming out does not mean it will get in.

My Shed Floor Ale was so called because almost the whole batch ended up there.... Left the tap open just a tiny bit. The shed smelt terrific. Some would argue you aren't really a brewer 'til you have lost a batch! 
You should be pretty right. Give the tap a good clean before you bottle, just like you normally would.
