It does hold diesel at a pressure of about 2000 bar. So it's not going to be cheap.
Is it the fuel rail that's leaking, or is it a seal?

I'd be more worried about the big pink arrow that's fallen into your engine bay

Pretty sure its not 2000bar seeing as divers cylinders that hold about a tenth of that pressure have to be tested regular.

It's between 1500 bar and 2000 bar depending on the type of engine.
Pressurised liquids are completely different to compressed gas because liquids don't compress.

Fair enough, didn't think it was that much.

It's usually the seals that go. They're thick bits of metal those rails.

i hope so and what you have said mkes me feel better as the price to repair those will be alot cheaper im sure.
another issue i have is when i put my foot down in 4th gear or 5th the rev gauge goes up very fast them comes back down
its like im riding the clutch for a few seconds.
you get like a high rev sound
exactly like pressing the clutch down slightly while driving while accelerateing
do you get what i mean ?

Just as I'd posted I went and asked the dad (former mechanic) what they're all about, he sed the injectors could take your finger off if not careful.
