[s-cars] Gas smell in cabin - where to look?

[Peter Golledge]

Check the crimps on the fuel lines to the injection rail & return.  Common
leak point, if the hose twists on the fittings they are bad.  I removed the
lines, cut off the crimps and had an industrial hose shop crimp on new hose.
Many shops wont do this though due to litigation concerns. :-(

Was passing a gas station when I first noticed the smell but then it didn't
go away. 
 
No obvious signs of leak. Any primary suspect areas? Looks OK around filter
but that is where the smell is strongest. Unfortunately the lower parts are
wet from road spray so will have to wait till morning to take a closer look.
 
Appreciate any insight.
