I smell gas fumes around the engine block but cannot detect any moisture where gas is, but i can smell it right around the engine block...

is their any way you can check for a gas leak around the block? it smells like it is on the right side of the block, closest to the front bumper.

I have a 1989 jeep cherokee 4 L 6 cyl engine

Park the car and let the engine run for few minutes. See if there's any fluid on the ground. If you don't see anything, then it could just be a spilled gas somewhere.
I'd strongly advice you to take the car in for testing. They shouldn't charge you anything for that.

You can take your car to any shop. Pet Shop boys come to mind. You should be able to get a free esitmate on what the problem is. Don't take their word for it though, get 2-3 different estimates.
Don't forget your car dealer's service department. They are good for finding out what's wrong without paying first.
