My cars engine oil smells like there is gas in it. Also when my car is cold and I first start it up, the exhaust smells really rich.

Running too rich:

Possible causes include a bad O2 sensor, excessive fuel pressure (bad fuel pressure regulator or plugged return line), leaky fuel injectors, dirty air filter or restricted air inlet, or a defective coolant sensor that prevents the engine management system from going into closed loop mode.
