Filler neck, venting hoses, overflow from the filler area--all could have cracks that let fuel smell out, or hoses could be disconnected or mis-connected. I believe the fuel pump is accessed through the plate on top of the tank, like in my CRX? If so, the seal around it is a huge suspect--you disturbed the seal when changing the pump, and if the seal was compromised somehow you can get fuel odors.
