2003 explorer 4.0 SOHC code P0455

Hey folks, wife driving the other day and SES dash light appears. I go to Auto Zone and had codes pulled.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
P0455
(1) LOOSE FUEL CAP
(2) EVAP CANISTER HOSE CRACKED
(3) PURGE OR VOLT SOLENOID DEFECTIVE
(4) VACUUM LEAK AT ENGINE

Anyone have a similar episode and could maybe point me in the right direction, what was your remedy..?

Checked cap--seems okay.
Evap hoses seem okay--hard to tell.
I havent checked #3 & #4 yet.
thanks everybody, Rich
GREAT SITE BY THE WAY...HOPE I'M HERE FOR A LONG TIME, AS I'M LOOKING TO PURCHASE THE NEWLY REDISIGNED AND LARGER SPORT TRACK...
