There's a few lines running from the top of the tank inlet down to the tank itself. Check for loose or weeping connections on the tank end and it may solve your problem?

I know the earlier commodores VB-VL had probs with perished lines on the breathers of the fuel tank. These would cause fuel leaks and smell when the tank was filled.
