ok finally found the oil, still stumped
 

ok so i cleaned out the engine compartment and got all the oil and crap out of the valley. drove to work today and took a look and i have a small puddle right behind the fuel bowl.
the lines on the right side dont look like they have oil on them or around, neither does the plug on the left side. so where could it be coming from then? im really tired of having oil all over the ground, its been progessivly getting worse. i really need to fix this thing my landlord does not like oil all over the ground

Could be coming from the HPOP itself and running back to where you are seeing it... The engine is naturally tilted back so it could be coming from up in the front and running back..

Smell it, does it smell like oil only? Or is it fuel mixed? It could be the water drain on the back of the fuel bowl. Very common. Leaks, mixes with crap in the valley and looks like oil. Might check that.

Not diesel.. it is oil. And the lines are all dry and everything. But there's still oil That leaked. What's under the fuel bowl and what not? I've never taken that kind of stuff apart yet or anything. And would like ideas before I started to take stuff apart

Well, you have the fuel bowl, the high pressure oil pump and thats about it. If you have a oil leak under there it could be the "non serviceable" plug on the back of the pump. You can get a replacement plug for it from RiffRaff.

It could also be the seal between the high pressure oil pump and the front cover.

i knwo what the problem is. at least im 99% sure i do. its the end plug. its a plug that goes into the back of the hpop right below the fuel filter. and right next to the ipr. the o-rings are like 32 bucks from ford. they are supposed to be mad out of a different material then most o-rings. ill take a pic of where it is on the pump tomorrow. not hard to get to at all.

OK yeah that sounds right to me.. exactly the kind of info I wanted to hear
Where else can I get the o-rings I hate the dealership here. And anyone got a write up? Do I need to take fuel bowl off?
