I think I would try it without the gasket as it would allow a higher clamping force against the O ring. |

So after removing the airbox to do a decent inspection it is not the hp pump leaking but rather some sort of senor situated on the engine block behind the oil funnel.

Take a picture, if possible, for us to understand better and properly suggest what it is... |

If you referring to the tip pointed below, then that's the tip of the cylinder 4 glow plug.

I would give the zone a good clean and degrease (it's easier with a brake cleaner spray) and watch often and carefully where the oil appears... |

So it seems that the oil is pushing from the inlet manifold.
