Injector O-Ring Leaking

Injector O-Ring Leaking
Noticed a damp residue around eack injector tube and on the flat spot under the injector lines. Not dripping wet but damp. I called the dealership and was told this is somewhat "nomal"? He said if it isn't dripping diesel, they would not do anything about it but to keep an eye on it. Does anyone else have this issue? Is it something to be concerned about right now? I have 35,600 miles on the clock.
Thanks Wayne

Sounds like the somewhat "normal" damp power steering gearbox. I got the same dealer reply to my damp looking ps gearbox. Maybe the injector o-ring is slightly underside there too like the ps box? Seems like more and more o-rings need to be just slightly larger or the weep some, suppose it the o-ring materials or the fluids? Also, weeping and dampness on metal surfaces seem to occur more during the winter months. My guess is that there is less of an amount of expansion and contraction in metals, but due to the colder temps the o-ring materials are more contracted. There seems to be more people with seepage/dampness, maybe the new ULSD is at the root/core of the problem and the cold is just amplifying the problem.
