Wish it was the hose, but it is motor oil around the injectors..... hoping it's not what I fear .......

Most likely the overlfow hoses are going bad and leaking. This will, of course, only get worse.

Use only the factory hose to replace them, nothing else (except maybe viton) seems to hold up at all.

They usually require replacement every three or four years. Sometimes they get rock hard, so if you do the job yourself, make sure you get all the old rubber off the injector nipples, otherwise it tends to slice the new hose open as you install it, making it leak as badly as the old ones.
