Insert
Many thanks to the many that responded (both on the list and privately) to
this request for assistance. After considerable additional inspection of
the injector pump, the very small leak would seem to be coming from the side
of the pump that is adjacent to the engine block. This area is so
congested, that I elected not to try the baby powder technique to further
isolate the leak source. Instead, the injector pump will be pulled in
January and sent to a rebuilder. Again, many thanks.
