I always do one at a time and then start engine, stop and do the next one and so on.
Give that injection pump a good clean up before you do the delivery valve seals.
Good to see in your 'parts required' list that you have included the high pressure line plastic clips as they are pretty important-mine almost rubbed a hole in two of the lines due to rubbing.
I din't see any return hose for the injector return lines on your shopping list. Best to use the grey line with the orange stripe (3.2 x 7.0mm) size from Mercedes or OEM (contitech I think). I've tried all others even other German made stuff but they all leak in no time.
Were you working on or near something for the leak to suddenly appeared like that? How many miles/kms on the engine?

Thanks a bunch for the reply! I first noticed a large stain on the ground when I was headed home from work, it began spontaneous. The car has 170.000 km on it.
If I am to run it in between replacing each part, I assume it's not dangerous to run it without intake manifold? Will it unleash hell sound-wise? I ask cause I share garage with lots of neighbours
My shopping cart consists of the parts mentioned in PeachParts guide, as well as a guide of a member of a UK MB forum. Neither mentioned the return fuel hose, great find! I ordered it just now from my swedish MB dealer. With my G-wagen om617, you can clearly see all parts and plan ahead. But this is all unknown territory for me, as I have yet to remove the intake manifold. I just ordered what the guides say...
Again, thanks!
