Strange oil leak

Is it posible for oil to leak from the bolts for the fuel pump? Ill wash it all off and thats where it seams to come back from.

yup. behind the plate that the fuel pump mounts to is the pushrod for the fuel pump and it uses the engine oil in there to keep everything lubed. id take off the pump and the backin plate clean everything and put it all back to gether with a new gasket. watch out though becuz the pushrod will fall out when u take off the backing plate

you won't leak fuel from there just because you leak oil.
