    If its coming from directly around the injectors it will be the injector seal/s, Its in real terms a flat copper washer, Cheap as chips even at the dealers there only pence!, You can actually remove fuel pipes for both, loosen/undo securing bolts for both & lift 3 & twist slightly to aid removal of 4, you may have to do the same with 2 to remove 3rd, Clean hole/s well b4 replacing seal & injectors, I used 3/8 or 1/2 bar extensions to prise out the injectors as there usually a bit tight, re-torque to correct NM/lbf.
