Had a quick look and looks to be the pump what's leaking is on the side of the pump I can't see if they are nuts or not

thought so, before touching it check the egr vacuum connection on the inlet manifold above the pump this often leaks onto the injector pump and looks like a leak fom the pump!! :y

edit think the 4 bolts one at least is a security bolt which requires a particular tool to fit
