Did he run out of fuel?

Do you count something like the Mille Miglia?

Absolutely not. It has none of the essential defining characteristics of a rally.

Jan Magnussen was driving the '00' car at a rally in Denmark the 10th of June 2000. He crashed before the finish. This was exactly one week before he participated in LeMans 24h 2000.

And what does one class as a rally? The Carrera Panamericana, for example, might qualify as such in the eyes of some.

I don't see why. The Carreara was an out and out race with the fastest car winning.

The only thing the Carrera had in common with a rally is that it was run in daily stages.

The essential difference between a rally and a race is that a rally pits competitors against a bogey time. Hit the time and you don't get penalised. Take longer and you do. Arrive early and in a modern rally you don't get penalised so one car can cover a stage faster than another and they both get zero penalties. At one time in some rallies you could get penalised for arriving early.

There's a 'Tour De France Automobile' event which I've stumbled upon...

If this is classed as a rally then de Portago, Gendebien, Bianchi, Mairesse, Larrousse and Beltoise could be considered in this list. Lucien Bianchi apparently also competed in the 1951 Alpine Rally, whatever that was.

The Tour de France was -- at least for a while -- essentially a series of races strung together by something resembling a rally. From time to time they actually had some sort of meaning, but then faded from the scene.

Duncan's comment is correct about the Carrera events -- they were flat-out races run in stages.

Has Stirling Moss surfaced yet? Keep in mind his performances in the Alpine Rally.

Yes, if you look back, I mentioned him in connection with his 1952 Monte performance.

My humble apologies, I simply managed to miss that reference to Moss -- even though it led off a sentence, sigh....
