How do you fix leaking fuel filter canister on 7.3L ford diesel?

It is probably not the fuel canister itself that is leaking.......on the back side of the canister ther is a small plastic drain valve.....this valve has an O-ring in it that dries up and fails causing the leak. the drain valve has a yellow valve control on it. It is a very cheap part and easy to fix.............Nick

If the oil sending unit is leaking oil by the inside of the component, then I don't know of any way to fix that other than removal and replace with another one. If it is leaking by the threads, then you can try teflon tape to seal that. Also make sure it is leaking from the sending unit and not leaking down from the valve cover.

Can you buy valve seal for Chevy?

Yes you can. I'd check the valve guides for wear while you're at it though. If the valve guides are bad a new seal isn't going to be a long term fix.
