Default something wrong with my fuel system i need some opinions

just did my LS swap. i had to use a few parts and lines from my old d15. Im using the FPR from my d15 and the fuel line that connects to the fuel rail. Also using some of the injectors from the d15 but i know they are the same. Anyway i smelt gas real bad one day. opened up the hood sure enough one of the injectors was leaking, so i replaced the o rings and it went away. But im still getting a really bad smell of fuel after being on the highway or at higher RPMS when i come to like a stop light. I checked all my lines and cannot find a leak anywhere. What the hell could be the problem? im also feeling that im just not getting the gas mileage i should be but i think thats also due to me needing to replace some things and do a good tune up on this engine. but where would you suspect my fuel smell is comming from? its been about a week since that injector leak so i would really think that the stuff that leaked would have passed by now. thanks for any help i don;t want to have to pay someone to find the problem.

its prolly just remnants of that leak before. the gas smell takes a long time to go away. i'd say wash the engine bay using engine cleaner and see what happens. that is if you're sure there aren't any other leaks.
