So my research has found 2 potential culprits.
1) When I went out to my car 3 hours later, the wheel well no longer smelled of fuel, however, I took a pic of the inside of the lower fuel fill. Looks pretty nasty in there. No fluid marks, but it may have evaporated. Needless to say, this doesn't look like it has been touched since Ferdinand was around. I think I may have these hoses laying around since my earlier work.



2) I opened the frunk and there was a very strong distinct smell of gas immediately. I smelled around and found that the sending unit had quite a potent smell there. So I will be replacing the cork in there. I don't think I replaced it when I did my early work on it. I have some cork laying around so I'll tend to it right away. I'll probably order one from Pelican as well next time I do another order.
