Question Image needed for leak chase

On my 2000 F250 I seem to have developed a leak "in the area of" the back of the passenger side head. The fuel port is dry and the original lines have long been replaced. Valley is dry, turbo pedestal long gone (who needs to warm up faster in Fl).So if anyone has a "labeled" image of the rear of a 7.3 head I would like to see before I start pulling everything apart.
Thanks Mike

I don't have a labelled diagram, but maybe these pictures will help.

The red arrow is the fuel rail plug.
