I just dealt with this problem on my 88 7.3 IDI, my problem was that on the top of the injector....where the o ring and caps are. They are on top of the motor right on top of the injector..if you turn them a bit you will see what i mean. Under that cap is two o rings and they feed the fuel back to the tank....i got a injector installation kit...which came with all new rings...caps, clamps and fuel line....did that and that totally did the trick..no more fuel leak and i starts better in the morning. Be sure that when you put the caps on the top of the injectors you lubricate the ringswith diesel ...or diesel oil and put the cap on straight...if you put them slightly crooked you will cut the rong and have a leak...i made this mistake. Dont and i repeat dont go to ford because it will cost you twice as much to do the job.....also fairley easy to do if you take your time and go slow. Oh yeah and my fiel leak was exactly where yours is. Good luck keep us all posted on your findings. Also when you check for the fuel leak..take off the cleaner so that you can see all of the fiel lines behind it...the leak could not be at the cap but at the line itself..good luck.
