Default Faint gas smell

Koup EX 2011 with 23000 miles. Like it alot.
Wondering: I have a minor gas smell when the hot engine is shut off. I can smell gas around the last injector on passanger side (behind the dipstick). The smell is not strong and doesn't seem to be there when the engine in running. Are there any vents in that area that could cause this?

It's an engine... It's going to have a gasoline odor.
