Foam in the engine bay

The foam stuff in the engine bay (keeps the engine warm) has come away from the bonnet and i was wondering whether to get rid of it, or to stick it back up, and if i stick it back up what do i stick it up with.

Fuel coming out of the exhaust!

Hi i was just wondering if anyone could shed any light on what could be causing this and if anything can be done to resolve the situation. as my mpg is down at 26 also which i assume should be better.

Thanks in advance
