As said, it could be from the fuel tank and just not visible. A little gas makes a big smell in a garage. Also remove the air filter and look into the carb throat. It could be the float valve in the carb. You haven't looked for the leak hard enough yet. As said, it could be from the fuel tank and just not visible. A little gas makes a big smell in a garage.

Check it, if the oil has gas in it you have a repair job coming up. If it's a 4 cycle it could have leaked into the oil. Check it, if the oil has gas in it you have a repair job coming up.

The only solution in both mowers was to replace the tank. You will want to check the tank and also where the line connects from the tank to the carburetor.

More likely a leak where it can't be seen. If the mower has been on its side lately, it is possible that some gas may have leaked into the crankcase. Try changing the oil. Internal leak is unlikely.
