Well every project I take on appears to give me headaches...I'm beyond stressed  .  I cannot get any of my injectors to budge (I've tried 1,2,3,4).  I can rotate them in their slots but they will not lift up.  All my strength and they will not move up a millimeter.  I also cannot get my number five fuel line to disconnect from the crossover tube.  I'll add pictures later but some of the nuts on the fuel lines are corroded which I suspect the issue to be with that (weird because it was California truck for 17 years).  The corrosion spread to the threads on some of the fuel tubes but I'm replacing them anyway.  

 

My only other option would be to just button everything back up temporarily.  But I really don't feel comfortable reusing these feed tubes...worried it's just going to leak like hell.  They aren't damaged/scuffed or anything but the corrosion worries me.   I may just have to tow it to my mechanic and have him try to do it because I'm getting too stressed out and I'm low on ideas.  Things shouldn't be this hard but that's the way it is. I'm trying not to go crazy...pray for me

There is a o-ring kit for the tee on the return line and also there is 2 banjo bolt washers on the banjo at the back of the head. 

Yep.  I'm going to see if I can get my iPhone or a mirror back there. I want a visual that it is causing the leak.  I did get fuel with my rubber white glove test...just want to be sure.  I know my local Cummins dealer has the banjo's in stock.  We'll see what drips overnight...pin point it.

Your are dealing with a washer that is 15 years old and on the cylinder head. If turns out not to be the leak it will be on day soon. I have swapped all of mine thru the years and one that leaks looks just like a plain washer. Get you a new one and you will see the difference. They rubber just gets hard.

Like I'll be due to do this project very soon. I'm still running leak free be eventually Murphy's Law will get me...

 

Suggestion pull the valve cover it will give your hand a wee bit more room to get in there.

Evidence seems clear enough.  Still curious as to why it started leaking after doing an injector job?  Very well could have been slowly leaking over time (from a tiny to a blatant leak).  My tee fitting is dry but below that is the return line going to the tank and it's leaking there as well (not as bad as the banjo leak).  It's right where the quick connect fitting is.  I'll start with the banjo leak and go from there.         

I also stand corrected....they were the original injectors.  Last two digits are flip flopped.  RV's end in 635 ...mine ended in 653.
