Sounds like you have 2 issues. First when it is cold and starts Ok but when hot no start. This is an indication of the injection pump starting to go bad. Second issue: Probably around the fuel sensor or fill pipe you have got a small hole which has started to leak. About the only fix I know is to pull the tank and see what is going on first before doing anything else.
