Fuel smell inside

Hi, I took my MR2 for a rip yesterday and noticed that I started having a strong fuel smell inside the vehicle...checked all over and didn't find any leaks.

Now on some other forums I've read that this could be the fuel check valve (breather valve, vapour filter?) which would need to be replaced...only problem is I can't seem to find where I can buy one.

Anyone know the real name or part number for this?
