Follow up question to fuel smell in the salon


Hey there and Happy New Year to the crew.
A couple of months ago I posted regarding a fuel smell in the salon. After many responses, I have decided to change out the fuel fill hose on both port and starboard this Spring. Folks have noted that hoses can be compromised due to the age of the boat and additives in the gasoline. I have a 2005 Mariner.
I was speaking with a friend and he mentioned that perhaps the fuel 'vent' line is the culprit.
I do not recall seeing any vent line on the boat. My previous vessel had the vents on the hull near the fill which were easily observed.
Do all boats require a fuel vent line?
Does the Mariner have a fuel vent line? If so would you know where they live.
Many thanks.
