Default Minor evap leak

I have a minor evap leak, causing the engine light to stay on. It's not the gas cap, any common causes? Thanks, Eric

Tech, I followed the line, twisting and reconnecting at intersections,from the evap valve to the manifold and back to the tank. So far, no message. Again, thanksfor your time and expertise. Eric
