Default Gasoline smell

I am getting a gas smell in the cabin. The right wheel well had gas in it as well as the spare tire compartment. Is it most like the gas cap seal or the filler neck to the tank seal? I can't locate a part number for the seal/gasket between the filler neck and tank. Can someone point me in the right direction? It didn't start doing this until I filled up yesterday.

Thanks,

Mike

Thanks for clarifying - I would start with the fuel filling inlet since you mentioned that spare tire section also had gas on it. To assist with any other issues that you may encounter in the future, I'm attaching a link to our site's DIY tech articles on the R107 platform. Hope this help you a bit and best of luck.
