Default help with fuel injector

i have a 2nd gen b16 and just recently a buddy of mine installed a skunk2 untake manifold and throttle body so when i was driving home last night i noticed that inside of my car smelt like gas and there was steam coming from under my hood i thought it was a fuel line that had come loose at first but come to find out it was the injector spurting out gas from the black o-ring could it be the black oring that goes around the injectoer or could it be that it wasnt installed right because it was also kind of loose any help would be apreciated

why dont you try taking the one that's loose out and putting it back in so it's tight? it could be leaking gas.

Was it the o-ring, or were the bolts on the fuel rail studs just not tightened down to spec?
