The display says Gas Cap and the Checking engine light is on. I've replaced the gas cap, evap and checked vacuum lines connected to it. I did find a hard plastic line near the tank, which goes to the evap and I reconnected it. Could it be about the tank?

Yep, there is a leak in the EVAP system. The best way is to use a smoke machine mounted to the tank fill and check to see where the smoke is coming from. I have included the popular leak point in the images below. I would put the car in the air and use a flashlight to see if you can find the broken hose etc.
