Try rubbing the code first. It may not reset itself or may takes bunch of drive cycles and conditions to be met to reset itself. (with a code reader or just disconnect your battery for ten minutes)
If the code comes back, then it's a PITA.
The best way to find it is with a smoke tester but you have to close a couple valves first in some sort of test mode.
You could check your purge control solenoid valve if it comes back... It's easy enough to do.
But there is a separate code for that.

I just had this. Replaced the cap didn't solve it. So I took off the hoses for the Solenoid under the hood for the gas pressure (forgot what it's called) if no leaks replace it. I bought this one

I haven't had it come back on in a couple of months. Cheap but fixed my problem. Better than paying $90 for oem.

That's the purge control solenoid valve.
There's a good chance that it's the cause of your leak.
The CEL associated with it covers the circuit for it but may not detect the part not sealing properly.
It's easy to test and replace.

Thanks guys this could be just what I need for my recurring 455 code too.
