Perkins 4.108 Injector Pump Leaking Fuel

I have a fuel leak from the injector pump on my Perkins 4.108. The leak appears to be at the point where the throttle control rod enters the pump housing at the top of the pump. I assume that it is a worn O ring or something similar, but don't really know. Unfortunately, the heat exchanger is located above the pump and denies easy access. Has anyone had a similar problem or know what the needed repair involves?
