Sounds like the charcoal canister.

(When engine is off this acts as the breather for the fuel tank to prevent fuel fumes from escaping into the atmosphere. The carbon granules inside it absorb fuel fumes. When the engine is running fresh air is drawn through the canister into the inlet manifold and the fuel fumes are released from the carbon and burnt in the engine)
