Bad fuel pump or filter?

Is the air intake box clean and dry?

I found a fuel leak, its behind and under the alternator and its a big leak, i think this is my original problem that cause the burban to stop running, but this doesnt explain why it will now not turn over, any advice on the fule leak is welcomed, hard to see exactly where its coming from cause its a big leak and the alternator is blocking my view

Welcome to the forum.

Could be hydro-locked. IOW one or more cylinders are full of gas or water if a bad head gasket.
