Default 91 ls, raw fuel smell... need help quick!!!

So, like the title says, I have a raw fuel smell inside my 91 da... But, here's the kicker... I only get the smell when a) decelerating or letting out of the throttle b) When coming to a complete stop c) when hitting bumps or any obstruction of any kind and c) sometimes while turning... I'm just trying to narrow down where the hell it's coming from. I need ideas, hints, or pointers of anykind as I have my 3 yr. old little girl with me most of the time and I'm pretty sure gas fumes are not good for a toddler... Any hints would be greatly appreciated. And, ps, i've replaced the plugs and the cap/rotor (possibly the rotor, don't remember right off hand)

Either a fuel leak or exhaust leak. Perhaps the fuel pump is faulty. Take a look at it.

there was a couple disconnected when i got it. I got them back to where they were supposed to be but still have the gas smell... It's fine until i do one of the things listed up top then it's like a damn cloud surrounds me in gas fumes...

follow the instructions on hood in order to connect the vacuum hoses the proper way.
