Default Gas smell

Now that it is cold out and the car has some snow on it, I have noticed a fuel smell coming from 0366. I originally thought that I might have a loose line after I changed the fuel pump, but I clamped off the fuel lines and the smell still persists. Is there anywhere that is a likely culprit for my smell that has something that contracted when it got cold? I don't know what the fuel tank looks like, but maybe a donut where the filler goes in?
