Thats where mine started to leak from. Fix it before it gets worse... I had mine reconditioned but you can do some of the seals yourself

Where did you get it recon'd from. Also how much was it?
I have found this -

BOSCH diesel fuel pump rebuilt gaskets kit / seals Range Rover 2.4TD 2.5TD AWD | eBay

Is that right?

It was ALOT about £450 to have mine rebuilt!! starts and runs very well now tho lol.

that kit looks about right its a simple job send me your email and il send you my step by step guide you can.usually contact the sellers with your pump type/number to make sure.

If you're taking the top part of the pump off you need to mark up on all sides to cover left/right, forward/back and twist. Be as gentle as you can with the security bolt. Most people just hammer a (7mm?) socket on it but be gentle!

Nothing to do with quantity servo. That is the cover for the timing device.

Won't he do all of them while he's about it? When one goes the others are about to.

Had the same problem with a bus full of young ladies a while ago, gave it a good shot

no but its usually the qa seal that goes first leaking downwards giving the impression its something else.

I believe the OP asked what the circled part was. To be honest pump looks like it needs a good coat of looking at.

Just wanted to update the thread but then the forum has had a facelift lol.
I would like to say a big thanks for the document i got sent by biketeacherdave.
It wasn't leaking from where i though at the beginning but from the pump as you guys said.
I haven't got time myself to get it done but i will be getting my mechanic to get it sorted for me with the help of that doc.
Cheerz again everyone.
