Prechamber leak?

I have a cyl that seems to misfire occasionally. Today after a drive and cleaning the engine yesterday, I got out and there is a leak at the #1 injector, but lower than the injector. Is this the prechamber? can I just change the seal? What does this involve to do it correctly?

thanks
Doug

You need to be more specific about where the leak is comming from (and whats leaking). The injector holder could be leaking if fuel is coming out between the two halves. A prechamber leak should manifest itself by bubbling up around where the injector screws into the head.

It is down where the injector screws into the head, not the injector it's self.
It looks like a ring on the head where it is leaking. So after looking through posts, and the parts pictures, I was thinking prechamber...
I have never done any injector work on the car, and I have put about 40,000 miles on it, since I got it.

Thanks
