Default 97 accord wagon fuel smell

Hey all, I have a 97 accord wagon. I Had some fuel problems.. replaced filler neck (rusted out). Fuel lines off the pump (rusted out and leaking). Figured to do fuel pump and tank while I was at it. So now there aren’t any visible leaks or wet spots on anything under the car from what I can see. But, now I have a fuel smell at the front of the car. Only while car is running in driveway or while driving I can smell it too. The moment it’s off and air moves around seems to be gone in a couple minutes. Any ideas? I was told maybe EVAP canister??

I'm going thru fuel issues with my 99. Check around the fuel rail and banjo bolts while its idling. Also check main feed lie and return line while idling.

I looked at the fuel rail. Nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. Unless there’s a sticky or stuck injector maybe? Idk, I don’t see any signs of wet spots or physical leaks
