I was driving around yesterday and noticed the smell of diesel in the cabin. Not diesel exhaust, raw diesel fuel. So i figured it was something simple like a fuel line. After I got around to checking it out this afternoon, I noticed my hood pad was soaked with diesel. So I started the engine to see what was going on. The injector closest to the firewall is leaking. Upon full throttle it will shoot a stream of diesel 10 feet into the air! Picture is attached.

Does the injector just need to rebuilt? I will try tightening it. The engine seems to start smoothly enough and power is good oddly enough.
