I'd really appreciate your input.
Thanks
If I had to make an educated guess and the code is a P0440, I'd say it is the ORVR.
This is a valve in the top of the fuel tank and they crack. They look like the pictures I have attached. It is very common here on the west coast for these to crack on echos/corrollas/camry/siennas and 4 runners.
We use a Toyota evap system pressure tester to check these valves. The evap tester pressurises the evap system and then you can spray some soapy water on the valve and it will bubble from the crack where it is loosing pressure.
Let us know what they find.
Make sure the vacuum line to the VSV Purge valve on the air filter housing is plugged in correctly too.
