Mechanic called and didn't see any leaks what-so-ever. Did notice that I'm burning oil ( I need a valve job in the worst way ) which was no surprise. He thinks the gasoline smell may be attributed to the oil burning.
Plus, the car is running a tad rich. I let him know that I really noticed the odor when I had the defroster on and RECIRC. off. Basically bringing in outside air. They are still working on it ATM. Will know more later.

Thanks for the replay Klaus!
