RE: a4 2.8 30v eccessivley cranking
Try pinching the fuel return line off and letting the car sit to see if it will start right away. I suspect you have a fuel pressure regulator that is bleeding fuel pressure in the rail when the car is off. Considering you have already replaced the pump and filter, its unlikly that the pressure is bleeding off that side. You may also have some injectors that are bleeding off pressure. Come to think of it that seems more likly considering you say you see and smell gas when it finally starts. In any case i think your bleeding fuel pressure somewhere.
