Default -Codes--P0446, P0441, P0450?

so on and off i've been smelling gas fumes from my car...It comes and go. A mechanic told me it can be the charcoal canister. I can't pass my smog check and i do get a cel that comes on even after i clear it. These are the codes i get. At this point i want to get it to pass smog and get the cel off because i don't want to put any money into the car as it's time to find a new daily. been thinking of a 2010 es350, Rx400h or maybe a is350

any 19 yr old car has cracked vacuum lines. look at your engine, pull off the bad ones and get some silicon lines to replace them.
