Fuel Smell

I can't locate any leaks, garage floor is dry, under hood dry as well, but I can smell fuel especially with a full tank. Could this be the fuel pump going bad? 97 tacoma.

Are you throwing any CEL? If so I would take it to a dealer and have them to smoke it with nitrogen to find the leak or ask an independent shop if they have an EEST machine.
