This is done by injecting smoked into the gas tank, and seeing if it comes out the various vapor lines.

If it’s full of liquid gas, that could also be the source of the smell. Do you routinely top off the gas tank after automatic shutoff of the pump?

When does a corolla have an odor of gasoline?
My early 90’s Corolla has a slight odor of gasoline when first starting in the morning and always has since it was new. Most easily noticed in the winter when it is coldest, and starting in an enclosed space, like a garage. It goes away within a minute or two. I notice it in the summer too, just not as much.
