NO!
We don't know what's going on because you have not provided us with enough details.

We are not mind readers!

Your canooter valve is confrazzled. Retransmogrify it.

Fuck, man. Maybe start by checking all your fuel lines. If youve got gas leaking on the exhaust side im surprised since 240 fuel lines are on the other side.

Gas is coming out of the tail pipe !

YOU GOT A BIG PROBLEM THERE THEN! Sounds like your valve cover isnt tight enough so the radiation from the cams spinning is causing the gap between your oil pan and rollers making fuel be able to warp into the tail pipe. You are going to have to jiggle the arc reactor before the gas tank shifts into the correct placement and stops the leak or else you may cause a global warming issue...

Well gas on the manifold can happen, if the lines blow just right they can spray up into the hood liner and drip across to the exhaust. I have first hand experience with that.


To OP, you can just look up reasons the KA runs rich because that is the exact problem(s) you are having.

I had a leaking injector fixed it tested all injectors the all passed electrical wise no more leaks from that end but the bottom end of the headers have fuel on it were it meets the down pipe and the tail pipe has gas in it
Gas is some how leaking heavily on that side

So if you do not have an external leak you still have a situation where you are running rich.

Are you getting any CEL? Maybe see if you can get your hands on a wideband and see what your AFRs are.

If it's flooding after you replaced an injector, you didn't lube the lower o-ring when you installed it, and it pinch or ripped, and is leaking. Get a new o-ring and use a lot of vaseline or clear non-silicone dielectric to lube it up before you put the injector in this time.

And for fuck sakes, change your oil before you try to start it. You may start leaking oil around the main seals, because it will be really thin with the gas in it. That may be how you're seeing gas.

Maybe have a fire extinguisher on hand if you think your exhaust is full of gas, for when it does start. Normally it would just smoke, but if you actually see gas, better be really safe - you can lose a vehicle to fire REALLY fast, speaking from experience.
