Check the hoses to the fuel heater in the heater hose line at the rear of the driver's side.

If you have not replaced the fuel lines, this would be a good time to do so.

'Just took another look after it's been sitting coupla hours.

This engine and under hood, etc., has always been very clean, 'specially for a Diesel, but there's a bit of "crud" on left side of engine in this area now; 'need to wash it good and watch closely.

Getting into the 87 300D this morning, I noticed distinct aroma of Diesel fuel; 'appears to be dripping from between IP and engine near rear of IP. Cursory look around injectors and injector lines above the area did not reveal anything else yet; 'check again with flashlight this afternoon. Any suggestions other than, "Stop the leak?"
