Depending on how much flexibility you want to add on modeling the shape of hemodynamic response, you can try TENT/SIN, SPMG2, or SPMG3.

Pretty arbitrary. More tents would allow you to model the fine shape of the BOLD response, but you would also have to pay the price: more regressors. So you will have to seek a balance somewhere, for example, two or three TR's per tent.
