Diesel leak around injector

Diesel leak around injector
I noticed lots of fuel leaking around the injector of my v50, inititally I thought it was from a fuel pipe, but after cutting a fresh end on the pipe, and holding it on stronger with a zip-tie, after a short drive it soon created great puddles of fuel again around the bottom of the injector.
There seems to be a bit of a leak around the plastic v-section the fuel pipes join to. cleaning the area then running the engine showed diesel creeping out, though there were such large puddles I do kinda think there may be a bigger leak at fault?
Any ideas? Is this v-part an integral part of the injector? Would there be a simple seal I could buy?

Today my dad came with the same issue;
-Car smelled like diesel
-Diesel around all injectors...
Did any of you solved the problem yet??
I'm hoping that it's the plastic connector (o-ring) of the return line (as shown in your picture)
This week I'm going to fix the problem !
If any of you already fixed the problem, please let me/us know!
