If you can’t physically see the leak then you need a shop that has the equipment to locate and fix it for you. I use a smoke machine to find emission system leaks. It’s usually a bad solenoid but lately it’s been gas caps.

There's smoke tests to find leaks but there's probably a solenoid or valve that's not working depending on the code ,
