What else to do/check/replace???

I have had a slight fuel leak into the valley for a while, well today I finally broke down and started replacing things. I started with the o-rings on the drain valve, the old ones were bad. While I was messing around I noticed that the fuel lines from the fuel bowl were all swollen and cracked. Other than Ford where can I get these lines? Also the heater element in the felu bowl was broken, need to replace that also. In the bottom of the fuel bowl there was a handful of "crud", best way too describe it, I dont know what it was but it was hard and there was a lot of it. I am soaking the bowl to try and get it all out so I can see if I have a hole rusted in the bottom somewhere. Other than the obvious things that I am replacing, are there any other things on the topside of the enging that can/will leak that I should replace while I have the topside torn down. The only thing left is the turbo itself. What about the oil lines to the turbo, is that a common leak? I am asking because I dont want to have to do this again for a long time. This truck has been great but I like to fix stuff once and then forget about it for some years.

The truck is a 96 2wd PSD


Thanks Greg G
