Just deliver the load and drive truck to dealer to get fixed. It's Diesel not gasoline. Plus most if not all engine have the fuel pump on the driver side of engine. That's the cool side. So it not like it's spraying on the hot exhaust. On the S60 Detroit the fuel line was in the back of the engine. You could only see it leaking until it would start to drop or spray out over everything. So just deliver load and get fixed.

The thing with fuel spraying, if it gets underneath the truck and onto the clutch, you'll be putting a new one in in the next couple days, happened to me when I had a fuel filter start leaking and got onto it.

Fuel spraying everywhere? Park in the corner and fix it. Minor weepage I'd do delivery and get it fixed ASAP. Wouldn't even want to guess how much crap and fines you'd get in from the eco-terrorists if you drove around leaking half a gallon of diesel a minute all over the ground.
