Default 7.3 Leaking Diesel

Alright, I have a 1999 7.3 PSD and I got a dripping leak, haven't really took a close look at it but I thought I'd post it on here and get some ideas where to start looking. I'm not sure if it is directly related but it was 10 degrees here lastnight and the high isn't above freezing for the past couple days. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks fellow bombers.

I'm working the shift where I get to see the sun come up and go down so It's going to be Sunday before I can dig in and have a look.

ok i have/had the same problem on my 97. there is a lift pump that runs off the camshafts and that could have a pee hole in it and its 115.14 through napa but i have a farm discount so it might be cheaper but i not sure. also there is a regulator on the driver side of the fuel filter housing and the sensor is half metal and half plastic and the plastic starts leaking next to the metal, idk how much that is. if the lift pump is the problem its a 3-5 hr job took me 4 1/2.
