Default Bike venting fuel through filler cap?

Hey guys, got a little issue with my curvy. It appears to be venting fuel through the filler cap. I can’t pinpoint any particular times that it does it (fully fuelled or empty) but the garage always smells really bad of fuel when you open up and you can clearly see fuel vapour trails (and the dirt that sticks to it) down the front and sides of the tank.

Anybody any ideas how easy/difficult this might be to fix? Am I looking at a new filler cap gasket or is there something else in the system I need to be looking at replacing.

Any help most appreciated.
