    Ahh, you are giving me PTSD. I did mine at the end of last year after a dripping regular caused an MOT failure. It wasn't too bad, but when I ordered the new regulator block, I forgot to order the little O ring that sits behind the regulator and the block, so the bloody thing still leaked. I couldn't smell the diesel so it just looked like it was a small oil leak, but in fact, the diesel was picking up the muck on the back of the engine and by the time it was hitting the floor was black.

    Hi, I thought I had an oil leak to start with but when it got worse I investigated to find the fuel leak. It happened before but it wasn’t this bad. I’m hoping I don’t have an oil leak as well!

    ​@@MikeMakesIt I dont think there are many places around the back of the engine where oil can leak from short of a pinched rocker-cover gasket. (I think those green O rings go on the pipes somewhere..)

    Hopefully that’s the case! Time will tell 😐 Yes, I think the O rings are part of the connector that fit onto the metal spigot tubes. I bought some new connectors just in case I needed them and if you look into them there seems to be an O ring about the same size as the green ones.
