Injector O ring or fuel line feeding injector is leaking fuel.

Yikes - talk about dilution!

Didn't seem to affect the wear. But there is cause to get it out, and find the leak before wear is compromised.

The oil had 2582 hours on it. It won't take long to troubleshoot/repair the issue. It is just to bad the oil had to be dumped.

wear metals look fine. fix the problem and keep the oil in service, the excess fuel will burn off in normal usage once the problem is resolved.
