Injector Orings Leaking?

Curios opinions on what looks to be several injectors leaking at base. Looks like a lot of oil around glow plugs.

Maybe I missed it, but I didn't see anything abnormal.

What kind of problem are you trying to diagnose?

All injectors have close to even flow from oil deflector spout and know that is normal. My concern is how it pools up around the glow plugs. Almost looks like a few are seeping from the base of the injector and making its way over whch would be the high pressure oring failing.
