But not when parked down hill. When level maybe a couple drops. Can't really tell where its coming from but can smell when driving sometimes. Anyone else experience this? Suggestions? Thanks.

1) don't park uphill.
2) use a bunch of paper towels, or your preferred cleaning medium, to clean up leaky fuel from everywhere. Then give the car a couple of hours uphill, and then find the source of the leak.

Yeah, no fun, maybe even quite messy, but you really need to find exactly what is leaking before a proper solution can be obtained.

Cheers,
