Oil change today and found leaking injector

I had noticed the car nailing recently. Could a leaky injector be the culprit? It is the #6 injector. Could it be the overflow line leaking? It was leaking enough to run down to the bottom of the engine and drip. Do I need to rebuild the injector or just replace it with a new one? Recently, since I am living in temporary housing (an apt.) I haven't been collecting/processing WVO, so I have been burning straight virgin VO (from Sam's Club). Could the VO damage the O rings in the injector?

Slightly off topic: I took an oil sample and will send it to Blackstone. Car has been running on WVO or SVO since last oil change (@3800 mi.) I'll post what Blackstone has to say.
