My immediate thought is that something is missing from this story.  When
the engine is shut off, the fuel pump is shut off (if mechanical), so
there is no supply of gasoline to overwhelm the float and continue
filling the bowl to enable overflowing.  So it seem something is missing
from the story here.  Do you have an electric fuel pump that is failing
to shut off?  Do you have a heat percolation problem from the exhaust
manifold?
