If its the rubber seal for the injector on the rocker box (cam case) apart from loss of oil no damage will be done if no oil is coming out its not a problem , if its the pipe that connects to the injector thats leaking which is less likely as the garage would have checked for leaks when you had seals changed to ali from copper, you will see and smell diesel fuel . I am very suspicious of the work the garage says needs to be done , have a look your self and see if you can see any leaks fuel or oil , take off the engine cover to make it a bit easier although most of the injectors apart from number one are covered by the intercooler , so I don't know how the garage found a leak unless there is clearly oil or fuel pissing out . If it inside the rocker box the garage would not know unless they did a valve check and would have have said , a valve check and adjustment is costly and you would have paid big money for at a toyota dealer .Now Im really confused.If the mechanic was bullshitting then he was making a pretty good job of it and sounded very convincing.
The garage has quote 1.8 hrs work rather than the 6hrs they quoted before which did seem odd as I imagined, as you guys have said that there is almost as much work getting to the one injector as there is for all four. I have told the garage that I want to see the work being done to satisfy myself that the work is necessary which they reluctantly agreed to.
I have little knowledge when it comes to under bonnet work so it is difficult for me to know if they are just saying work is needed for the sake of it or not but if there is a problem I obviously dont want leave it and cause more damage.
