I have a 99 F-350 with a 7.3L. There is a fuel leak from somewhere behind the P/S pump. The 2 fuel line running thru that area appear dry.

I would think if you cant see what is going on but know the location, it is indeed time to clear a little junk out of the way to see a little better.

Let us know what ya find!

Uummm....wow! Haven't heard of that one yet! Lol

That is the internal fuel rail for the injectors.
I would imagine it is replaceable but im curious what is going on with it.
is it rusted? Or just leaking around the outside edge?
As far as replacement, I would perfer someone who has rebuilt these heads to give you a procedure.
I haven't done it so i don't know if there is a little trick to anything. I normally use permatex around those plugs but that is in the cooling system.

Isnt there a "core" plug on the front of each head?
Could be wrong on this one though.
