I recently had some work done on my coolant system and they had to change my thermostat which requird them to remove the throttle body. I finally had a second and traced the smell, and fuel leaking on this component. When I start the car up fuel begins to pool on the rim and the vibration of the engine shakes it to the engine block where it burns off and I get fuel smell in the cabin of the car. I have circled the component. I have no idea what it is or how to replace it or check it to make sure it is bad. Info would be great. It is to the left of the throttle body next to the exhaust manifold.[img:bbe87a04d0]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/300885_0303091809_1.jpg[/img:bbe87a04d0]
