Strange Oil leak
Got a leak from the injector rail area. 2 slightly loose bolts. Radiator didn't boil over. Does Oil run through the rail?

I believe the dt466e uses high pressure oil to actuate the injectors. Sounds like you have a leak in one of the oil lines/connections.

Thanks. It appears to be the gasket on the injector rail. I'm gonna pull it and replace and hope that's it. It's pretty hard to see.
