Exclamation Diesel leak! Help!

For a a couple days, I've notice a raw diesel smell inside the cab, and thus mining i noticed a puddle where i had the truck, so i crawl under there would it's running, and see fuel dripping off the block next to the starter... I look on top, and can't see anything... I really can't afford to lose much more @ $4/gal ... Any ideas? Needs fixed asap

Take a look into the bottom of the engine valley, any fuel leaks collect fuel there and it runs back to exit on the right rear block area and then on to the starter/bell housing.

Could be fuel return/supply lines, injection pump weeping.. Might check the bottom of the fuel filter seperator/heater for any leaks that may find their way into the valley. 94 had a low mouted lift/primary pump, and 95 had a valley mounted pump that was a leak point as well..
