410 Fuel Smells

[OakHouse411]

Hi all
I am getting a strong smell of fuel both in the car and in the boot. I have unscrewed the storage compartments in the boot. There are only two fuel pipes behind this, the one coming from the tank to the fuel pump and the one going from the pump to the engine.
I have an SU fuel pump. I have unbolted this from where it is mounted under the rear wing, and checked it with the ignition on. No sign of any leaks. Running my hands over the hoses and the pump, all appears dry, yet very strong smell of fuel in the boot.
I have taken out the rear seat squabs and unbolted the metal plate to gain access to the tank. Again, there is no visible signs of any leaks.
Is there a breather pipe and where is this located? Have checked the drain hole in the filler recess and this is clear. Have checked the tightness of all visible jubilee clips.
Your advice urgently required please.
Thank you
Andrew
