Inside the car every now and then, i put the heaters on and there is a really strong smell of petrol which comes into the car 
Doesnt stay around long and then its gone again.
It did it to me last night whilst i was sat on the drive, just reversed on after coming home and sat there for a minute or so with the car running and the blowers on (on 1 i think)
The smell came into the car then too
Any ideas 
Thanks.

Check for a fuel leak by fuel rail etc first of all.

Not so much to take off, worst part ive found it getting it back on, when connecting the inlet to the throttle body rubber hose.

oh forget my bit then haha although its worth checking anyway all my corsa's have been unplugged, its basiclly a rubber pipe coming down into a little whole and it just vents the petrol tank.
best way to check the injectors without taking the inlet off is start the car and get a torch in the gaps on the inlet and look for wet patch's around each injector
