Technical Oil leak around injectors

[wilkes]

Grab myself a bargain and picked up another old Ducato X250 last week.
Does anyone know what this oil leak is around the injectors and if it is a simple job to repair?
Thanks in advance

Which engine?
What is the "oil" engine oil, diesel or carbon muck from a leaking injector seal in the cylinder head?

2 litre, 100 multijet and It’s definitely engine oil.

I am guessing yours is the 8 valve Peugeot engine?
I would look at the breather pipes etc./ or a cracked plastic inlet manifold.
You may need to wash it down to locate leak.
Has the manifold or cam cover been off and the old gasket reused?
Or if the bolts have been overtightened it can crack around them.

Apparently It’s the mk7 transit engine

2.2l Puma engine.
As said previous you need to clean it up and start from there. Start with a good hand wipe down with cloth & degreaser.
