You did not say if the injectors were rebuilt or not or if rebuilt who did the job. If the injectors were taken apart and re-assembled it is possible for the injector to leak between the injector nut and the upper injector body. This can happen due to a cracked injector nut (the part that threads into the precombustion chamber), the injector inside surfaces were not lapped before re-assembly, injector nut not torqued correctly to the upper body, or dirt got between some of the inside parts.
Often leaks in this area do nut show up until the injectors are good and hot.
