Question Fuel smell

My car is presently at the dealership, I took it for its schedule oil change but on the way there, noticed that whenever I turned on the vents, I could smell gas. So they had it for a couple of days, and called to say that raised the manifold to check out some sweating on the injectors and they think it could be the O-rings, and so they have ordered new ones. Everything is under warranty, but have any of you experienced this problem before?

Input is appreciated, thanks in advance.

Update

So it appears it was the O-rings, just had them replaced, so no smell in the interior. However, while at the dealership, started her up and the check engine light came on Will be calling them later today to see what code has come up......
