my guess will be the filler hose is leaking in the trunk. or the breather hose next to it.

it depends on what car it is, usually you can see it in the trunk on the same side where you usually fill the car with gas.

It could be coming from the fuel pump. There is an o ring that usually goes bad in cold weather or after replacing the pump it self Anther possibility is the charcoal canister
