could be a bad gasket or loose filter, also the oil coolers right in that same spot as the filter, make sure it's not the o-rings.....pain in the a@# to fix......

If yo have an injector pump you posted this in the wrong forum. It doesn't exist on a PSD.
There IS a fuel pump in the engine valley though.

It's possible they meant fuel pump....they are known leakers. Not too bad to replace if that's the problem.
Look in the engine valley for fluid puddling but any fluid you find there can be fuel or oil....lots of places to leak....it's called the 'valley of death' around here haha....it's really not that bad though.
