Step 1. Spray good quality degreaser and rinse off and let dry.
Step 2. start engine and let idle and watch carefully where the fuel leak is originating
Step 3. disassemble the offending leaking part and replace/reseal it.
more than likely, it is just the cloth braided lines leaking fuel and it is dribbleing down and showing up around the injector body.
if it is for sure leaking out the injector body, then you will need to pull the injector, and attempt to tighten it up, but if that does not work, a injector shop will have to repair it.
and if you are going to that much trouble, just have them spray pattern/pop test them all, and have a complete set of matched injectors. then clean out the holes, and replace the shields, and you are good to go for another 150Kmiles!
