AmK breather unit name?

[KevinS38L]

• Hi there is a strong smell of fuel coming from behind the coolant bottle. All three pipes don't make a seal and i cant find any info anywhere on what this unit is called. The car runs fine and boosts well.
  Any help would be really appreciated

This is connected to the charcoal evap canister and is likely to smell of fuel as the evap recycles fuel vapor hope this helps.

Ok do you know if the pipes connected to it are meant to be fully in? They seem to be sprung open the smell if fait through the vents when driving

That unit is just a housing for the plastic hard pipes. It’s function is to hold the pipes in place.
In order from closest to firewall
Black > fuel feed to engine
Blue > fuel return to fuel tank
White > charcoal canister & N80

Most likely the white line/system is the issue - check for splits in that line.

If the other two were leaking there would be obvious fuel leaking as they are major fuel lines.
