H2 does liquify, anything does
also is is able to be stored in metal or glass, usually if its under pressure it is a glass lined metal canister, with heaps of insulation because under pressure it gets very cold
cold is good for a combustion engine, as there is more expansion of product gases
the highly flammable aspect of H2 is why it makes an excellent fuel, but then again.... hindenburg

sure it liquifies... the boiling temperature of hydrogen is 20K ie, -253 celcius. (helium is at 4K = -269C, and is capable of freezing hydrogen (at 15K?)
hydrogen can also exist in a metallic state (so they say) at a pressure of 2.8Mbar.. thats 2.8 MILLION atmospheres of pressure.
there is a big difference between talking about storing H2 AT temperature (ie 20K above asolute zero) and containing it as a gas under pressure at room temp...
H2 does difuse through metal, and readily diffuses through glass and plastic. joints in piping are the bigest problem, with metal on metal seals the most reliable way (since it diffuses through O-rings )
