the fuel smell is from the broken activated charcoal filter, but the noise... i got no idea how it sounds.

what's the frequency of the click and how does it sound? metal to metal, rubber to metal, etc.

How many miles are on the car? Does the sound change when you turn one way or the other? If it does, I might suspect a CV joint. Questioned the miles because CV joints normally last a long time.
