04 Base - Gas smell under car

When I park my base 04, I can smell gas. Some time prior to this I used to have a small evap leak, changed the gas cap, code went away. I put the car up, ran it, let it sit, visually inspected everywhere I could, found no sign of a fluid leak, and didn't smell anything while it was running. The smell is noticeable inside the car, just outside near the rear end.After the car had been running I could smell it. Could this be a bad tube from the tank to the charcoal canister or a bad canister?

Hooked up a scan tool and there are no codes found.
There is also no gas smell under the hood.

Has anyone had this problem before? Please share your ideas on this.
