A methodical approach will get rid of it. See Fume Control, section "Troubleshooting Fuel Leaks and Smells"

Yes, it took me a while to find them. A pinhole leak in the fuel hose, not even enough to drip, creates a lot of smell. It was in my clothes when I'd get home. I could only find it by touching the hose. Found three spots.
