S14 , weird fuel leak, anyone seen this?

So my S14 is leaking gas, seemingly out of the fuel pump plugs. There is no gas anywhere on the sides or the bottom of the tank. When I shut the car off, especially when it is hot, the two fuel pump plugs begin to fill up with gas. This is causing the weather seal inside the plugs to swell up and results in the plugs becoming disconnected.

I am assuming its leaking from the bulkhead-type electrical connector but I cant tell while the sender is still installed...

However, I was thinking maybe it was related to the fact that I do not have the EVAP system hooked up. I just put an SR20DE in the car and do not have the requisite solenoid and charcoal cannister so I just plugged the engine side line and left the gas tank side vented. Maybe the lack of suction in the tank is causing the gas to push through the bulkhead connectors?

Thanks for any input
