Unhappy Check Engine Evap Troubles

Check engine light went on, got the code for evap... The filler neck was so rotted my ringer went through it while changing it out.. I figured that was the problem but after I cleared it I went about 160 miles then it turned back on.. Before i smoke it out anything else I should check out? Lose or cracked hoses?

The weird thing is i was due for inspection... after i replaced the filler neck and cleared, i drove the truck around 160 miles and the light didnt come on... i went and passed inspection and about 4 hours later is when the light came back on.

Check canister under truck, think its inside the frame rail about at drivers door. I had split in lines coming off of it that was causing my evap code. Clipped the bad end off and slipped fresh hose one and back in business, no more code.
