This is exactly what I found after looking for a very sever diesel fuel leak! thank you for posting i was able to find and fix very fast. 55 dollar new line from ford. no leaks easy to do!!! love this site also just a good thought for everyone. if you ever have your y pipe off your turbo check this hard line right at the bracket to see if its wearing through so you can fix it before it happens to you! i could tell that mine had been wearing through for a long time!
