Default PO452 and raw fuel smell

I have been getting a PO452 about once a month for awhile now. and every once in a while there is a fuel smell. I have looked it over and can't find any wet leaks so I think I am just losing vapors. Tried the cheap fix of a new gas cap but that didn't change anything. Just looking for suggestions on what to check next. Happens once a month maybe my truck is on its period. Oh yeah its a 2000 4.3 Thanks.
