An update to this topic.
I was finally able to replace the fuel cap filter (21A2109) when it came back into stock. I haven't used the car much this spring but as far as I can tell the fuel smell has gone.

A late update to this thread. It turns out my MPI had the wrong/failed fuel cap fitted - it had a non-sealed cap which was venting fuel vapour rather than vapour being collected in the carbon canister. (Tested by blowing through the key hole.)
After changing the cap when I now remove it there is now a slight release of vapour pressure from the tank.
