2002 GMC Safari 6 cyl Automatic 74000 miles

Car has long cranking time and a gas smell after starts. Doesn't happen on first start of the day, but after driven for awhile, turned off and tried to re-start after off for at least 15 minutes. Smells almost like the engine has been flooded but never pressed gas pedal. Replaced fuel pump because of low pressure reading but still have the problem.

Could be an injector/s or the pressure regulator is leaking
