1987 Starting harder

My 1987 300d is starting harder than it has in the past and is idling rough/low. I've changed nothing with the IP to cause this behavior. Could this be leaking seals around the Injectors? I see some fuel pooling around a couple of them and running down the side of the motor. Are these hard items to replace?

Thanks, Jim

Leakage at that point may impair the injector feed preesure. Fix the seals first. I imagine the impairment is directly related to the amount of leakage. Hopefully common sense.

I'll fire it up tonight and see if I can notice bubbles coming out or something.
