Wanted to update this post, because i did and learned some things in the meantime. The P1128 and P1130 codes were actually caused by having the wrong MAF version, i did sort that out quite a while ago and no more codes, definitely closed the book on those.

The P0455 code was indeed from a major evap leak, it was actually the fuel sender unit. Under the battery tray the plastic neck that the line connects to snapped of, it was old yellow brittle plastic. i replaced the fuel sender, made sure the fuel pump was sitting right and fixed that issue right away, no more fuel fumes coming into the cabin.

I still have the hot start issue, and i believe what is happening is what Blue62 and particlewave (in an older post here) mentioned, fumes ending up in the intake, when i press the gas a bit more air is mixed in and it starts right up, never takes more than 2-3 seconds. it's most likely something in the EVAP ecosystem that is not doing its job.

I was going to change that valve that sits behind the right headlight, i have the part just never got around to replacing it. I thought it was supposed to go on the charcoal canister according to DYI guides but i guess that was for a different version, mine goes behind the headlight along with another valve. If that doesnt do it i'm considering replacing the charcoal canister.

I'm gonna do that soon and report back. Thanks to all that shared really valuable info, very much appreciated!
