Just replaced lift pump with new one. Very slight oil leak dripping from around or under lift pump after a few weeks of driving. Re fitted with another new gasket and and sealant but still dripping. Jet washed engine to remove all oil traces in order to find exactly where leak is. Slight drip directly under lift pump lever??
Any ideas anyone?

Yep , **** part - leaking out the primer pivot arm . you can live with it leaking or get rid of it ( well keep as an emergency spare in the landy ) and buy a Delphi one ......
