spannersatcx,
  • Shutting down the affected engine should stop the fuel leak and preserve remaining fuel for operating engines.
  • All remaining fuel can be used for the remaining engines through normal fuel management.
Fuel Leak (Suspected) in Flight Checklist

The amount the override/jettison pumps will leave unused in the inboard tanks in the case of an inboard engine shutdown should be shared with the flight crews. That's about another 200nm. that should be taken off the range for 3-engine cruise.
