Fangio,
Congratulations and welcome.
Another place to check for fuel and vapor leaks is the top of the fuel tank. There are three gaskets there that could leak fuel and fuel vapor. They are the fuel filler, the fuel gauge sender, and the fuel tank vent.
Another place to check is the large diameter hose that connects the external fuel filler to the fitting on the top of the fuel tank.
