fuel leak from fuel pump on 51 transit, help?

fuel is leaking from the back of the fuel pump between the 4 outlet pipes. its coming from what seems to be a round metal casing with a pin prick dent in the middle. fault comes and goes. any ideas why its leaking and what is behind the metal case.

the leak is coming from the solenoid on the back of the pump. this is a common fault with bosch fuel pumps. you can only replace it with a recon pump or if your lucky try to seal the cap on the end of the solenoid using aledite to part glue. remember to dry off all diesel and seal the pin prick with the glue to.
