EVAP Leak?

-heres the situation,
a month ago changed my plugs and air filter, (i used a small amount of anti-seize around the threads and some electric tune-up grease on the contact tips of the plugs - FYI) a day later my engine light came on, i let it go for a while and tried resetting the ECU but it came back on after a day or two

-so today i went to the honda dealer to have my timing belt changed , i asked to have the codes checked and he wanted 70$ just to check them, i laughed and said no thank you, but the tech checked the codes anyway and on my bill he stated that the code was an "EVAP code" and will return in a few days due to "EVAP leak"

any info or help on this would be much appreciated
