Starting problems and gas smell

Chevrolet Impala 2005  186580 miles
I've got two problems: it takes many attempts to finally start the engine and once it does, there is a terrible gas smell.

Check the hose that carries the gas to the engine. It may be either broken or damaged.

Something similar ocurred to my Impala, check the gas pressure regulator.

Vent/purge canister by the fuel tank on the inside of the fender, they go bad and cause hard starting/ dying out while going down the road and you smell fuel
