Diesel/oil leak passenger side front uk

Hi my 3.6tdv8 has developed a leak on the drive way it’s the passenger side front under the engine
It looks like oil on the ground but when I got underneath the car and ran my finger along the sump tray it looks and smells like diesel I removed cover but can’t find we’re it is coming from any suggestions
Thanks in advance

Could be a leak off pipe from injectors.

Could be a loose connection on high-pressure line to an injector.

Just whip off the black cover and have a look. I had this and it just needed a new o-ring on a leak off pipe connector and a tweak up of a high pressure nut.

Mine was leaking down the LH side of block and dripping off gear box to bell housing joint. __
