Tighten Gas Cap?

I keep getting a tighten gas cap messag on my dash. I have replaced the gas cap 2 seperate times and it keeps coming back and will eventually throw a CEL. I have also replaced my evap vent valve and it was stuck open. After that it still is throwing a CEL. Any ideas?

Mines a v6 but there’s a pvc module that throws the same code.

There's a evap leak. Probably the vent valve since it's the hardest part to get to. I'd have it smoke tested to be sure.
