Help needed!!! Persistent gasoline smell inside the car 200 1991

For about three days I'm experiencing a persistent gasoline smell inside the car. The weird thing is that outside the car it doesn't smell at all. It's a 1991 245. For all I checked until now, it doesn't leak anywhere. The engine compartment is clean, there are no leaks around the fuel pressure regulator, the ramp, the injectors. I also checked under the car, the fuel tank isn't leaking, the lines are OK, the pump and the filter are also clean and without leaking signs. I also lifted the right lateral panel in the trunk, where the fuel pipe is going to the tank, and there looks to be nothing wrong... Help, I need new ideas where to look for leaks or holes... Is there any venting that comes from the fuel tank and goes in the car? Do you have acces to the fuel tank from inside the car? I think it should have a visiting hatch but I don't know where it is.
If anyone can help....
THX
