What's wrong with my G?

Since a few days ago
When I start my car in the morning, around 5 minutes after my car runs
I can smell a smell of oil(gasoline), it keeps like 1-2 minutes, then the smell gone
What's wrong with my G? is there any leaking of oil tank?
I tried to stop my car and open the hood, smell like a dog see whether if i can smell which part the smell come from
BUt i couldn't find it

Idk
I open like 1/4 both sides windows and turn on a/c the fan like 3/5
I guess is outside, coz i couldn't smell any where wind comes out inside my car.
