Default leaking fuel where it should'nt

I recently took out my evaporative emissions canister because it was leaking fuel, i let the engine run on idle for a couple of minutes and gas came shooting out of the hose that was meant to be for the fuel vapor,(that definently isn't supposed to happen) the lines are put right, i'm seriously running out of ideas what to do, if i put a new canister the same thing will happen 'cause fuel is coming out where the vapor should be. I changed the fuel pump when i first got the car and i remember i cut a section off the neck of the gas tank and replaced it with one of those hoses that won't corrode from the fumes( the reason i did this was so i could put the tank back in alot easier) I remember there was a metal tube in the portion of the neck that i cut off, i didn't pay any attention to that small metal tube in the neck of the gas tank, do you think that would have anything to do with my problems??
