Heavy gas smell

So I finally got a chance to look at my car to see if there was a vent tube next to the filler tube on my car and there is. Vent line comes up the filler tube, goes around a loop and dumps back into the filler tube.

Ok, so your pic doesn't show all. The vent tube does loop right back down to the filler tube as shown but instead of re-entering the filler tube,,, there should be a strap welded onto the filler tube that holds the vent tube in place. This strap and the length of vent tube continuing down through the floor grommet was fairly well hidden on the forward side of the filler tube.
There have been issues with the aftermarket filler tube to tank seals but that fault spills fuel at the tank, not at the frame rail.
