Nucleotide
Yes, the connective tissues of the epimysium contain the blood vessels and nerves that supply the muscle fibers
No, only endomysium. Likewise for Cardiac muscle. Skeletal muscle is the only one with epimysium (which is continuous with fascia) perimysium and endomysium.

Epimysium.
The layer around the whole muscle is known as the epimysium. It protects the muscle and helps transmit force generated by the muscle to the tendons.
There is only one type called fascia. It has different names depending on its location. The three are: endomysium, perimysium, and epimysium.
The epimysium is the outer layer of connective tissue that surrounds an entire muscle. An example of epimysium can be found in the biceps brachii muscle, which is located in the upper arm. This protective sheath not only helps to maintain the muscle's structure but also facilitates the attachment of the muscle to tendons and bones.
