How to replace the reilef valve

How hard is to replace or cap the relief valve on the CP3? I noticed today that I have fuel on top of the CP3 and I'm positive its the relief valve. Any help would be great. Any pics would be great!!! Thanks in advance

Capping the banjo bolt above the valve is very easy to do but I don't see your rail valve causing you to have diesel on your CP3. Sounds like your problems lie elsewhere.

The only valve on the CP# itself is the Cascade Overflow Valve (COV). It looks like a nut with a ball bearing in the center of it and it points outwards towards the drivers side. If you have a leak at the banjo bolt on the CP3 it means it's not tight or one of the 2 gasket/seals on either side are bad.

The leak seems to be directly on top of the CP3. Sorry I was under the impression that a bad RV could be the cause of this.
