Fume Events

Fume events, with adverse effects on crew and passengers, are gaining more attention.
I am wondering:
When they notice the fume event, can the flight crew identify the faulty engine?
Can they shut off the bleed air from that engine, or if not, are they permitted to shut that engine down?
Can either engine on its own maintain cabin pressure?
Is it their decision whether to land as soon as possible?
