The pump is in the valley. It could be that, or the hoses, maybe a loose cap on the filter, or the lines to the heads from the pump. You are going to have to get a good look at it to tell. Are you sure it is fuel and not engine oil?

I got my repair manual from Pep Boys. It is for diesel engines. You need another for the truck. Probably our sponsors have manuals. Check them out.

The fuel pump has a small hole near the bottom on the passenger side where it leaks when it is going bad. Hard to see.
