i'd be replacing the return lines now for sure; if you got any of that
stuff on the return lines, they may well be shrinking up, and start to
pop off making an extra-special mess of the hood liner and everything
else under the hood.
i still didn't see howl old the return lines are; those
the return lines are not the metal ones *to* the injectors.
and i don't think there'd be any cause to worry about an engine
cleaner damaging a metal line, since metal is what most of the engine is
made of.
cheers!

be careful what you clean the engine with; the stock return lines are
pretty easily destroyed by many engine degreasers and cleaners.
i didn't see how long it's been since you replaced the ones that
are in there, but frankly, i'd just replace the return lines all with
known new good
You mean the bent metal lines to the injectors? Or the flexible
rubber/cloth lines between each injector?

Simple. Don't touch the steel lines unless you are replacing or
testing injectors. Replace the rubber hoses annually.
Now, repeat it back to me.
Slow down and repeat that, please. That's a lot to absorb...

If you don't have any luck with the return lines as other suggested and you
go for replacement, then replace all the injectors. Or better yet, have
them rebuilt by someone competent.
But avoid those Indian bosch rebuilds, they're really horrible. I just
confirmed this in a 240D I bought a few

Great input - thanks. Clearly, I need to clean the engine and watch for
the fuel to appear. The cloth injector lines are pristine; in every other
case of leaky lines they were saturated (dark colored). Mine are still dry
and white from one end to the other.
