hey can u guys tell me what u think caused this "streak" on the middle (black) part of the injector? it seem to run downward but nowhere it can eak from except the seam between teh blue and black...and what is the injector O ring? the orange ring on the bottom? that is the top ring and it stops there...also would gas cause a discloring liek this?...or could this just be somehting spilled on them or just something rubbed it off...(2 injectors of 8 have this and this one also has some on the other side....pic will basically tell the story. thanks in advance

might be from fuel, but probably from heat of the intake.

It's hard to say, it does look like fuel got on it, but when the o-rings are setting that isnt uncommon, I wouldn't be worried at all, that is common before you seat them all after the car runs. Just push the rail down on them, don't worry about this at all.
