the reason you are seeing the puddle in the rear of the valley, is because the motor slopes rearward, and everything runs back there. check to make sure your fuel bowl lid is tight, and not cracked. the lieometer is useless, hand calculate mileage and then you will feel better.
If an injector was stuck open for that long you would have hydrolocked the motor by now.
Check and make sure fuel fill cap is not damaged, or cross threaded.

Passenger side fuel line

New to this and idk if you still need this but I would check the passenger side fuel line that runs under the turbo to the back of the head. It can rub on the turbo pedistal and wear a hole through the line. Good luck
