I'm no diesel expert .. but if there is fuel, there is a hole, if there is a hole, air gets in .. and diesels don't like air in fuel lines !!!

Possibly the leak off pipes ?? These return excess fuel back to the tank, and air in there ends up with air in the fuel lines ...

As we said before, check all the leak-off pipes.
