If its a sweet smell you may have a heater core leak and the fan is blowing antifreeze thru the vents. If its a moldy rotten smell you have mold growing in your vents.

Depends on the smell. if it smells sweet, like antifreeze, then it is probably a leak in the heater core. This is a small radiator that runs from the main radiator and makes hot air for the heater. If it smells like gasoline, may be a gas leak. Do not drive the car, get it fixed by a professional. If it smells like smoke, it may be an oil leak. get it checked.

You probably over-filled your gas tank and the smell is the excess coming out the vent. Or, you could have a leak/rip/tear in a gas line somewhere, in which case you're driving a bomb on wheels that could blow at any moment. Don't smoke near the car and take it in to a mechanic if the smell doesn't go away after a couple days of driving.

Possibly, but the supply lines should be in the wall. Even on a slab house, the water should come into the house at the water heater and then be in the walls. Possible heat vent leak? I'm assuming a slab house because if there was access underneath, you would be able to tell if there was a leak.
