Default Fuel leak / oil leak

other day i found that i had fuel mixing with oil. And it was leaking from the side of the motor on the drivers side behind where the factory lift pump is mounted. I pulled injectors out an found that the number 6 injector body o-ring was busted. I put new o rings on all the injectors an all the tubes. My question is, Where was it leaking from. And how do i fix it, cause now that i fixed all the o rings it still leaks oil slightly. But no sign of fuel mixing in the oil now. No smell or abnormal consistancy in the oil. Thanks guys.
