Yea, it could be torn, cut, ripped,etc. If you end up pulling all the injectors its always a good idea to replace the o-rings whenever you do.

Ha ha ha, the injectors. Ha ha ha. Hell with my wife at times, it aint there for O-rings.
Anyways, I can pull one out without the rest coming undone at all? Seems to me if they all have to be disconnected from the rail to fix onethat they could be a issue after allput back together since they were messed with.
I assume one can come out and the rest stay intact?

I've never been able to get the o rings on the ford injectors on the intake side. I always end up cracking the tips. Be prepare to just buy an injector.
That's b/c you are a short bus rider w/ no skillz!!!
That could be it too. Your going to have to pull the upper intake and the fuel rail up then just pull the injector off the fuel rail. Replace it or the o ring then pop it back on. I ended up just putting accel injectors on my car, they are pretty nice because they are metal at the tip instead of plastic so next time I pull the intake I can just pop a new set of o rings on no problem.

Not that hard but not the easiest thing in the world. Save up some cash for new intake gaskets also Sucks to do all that work for a .30 cent injector o ring! [8D]

Just replaced all the O-rings on my 88GT vert. Intake is not to hard to remove. Trying not to break vacuum lines is the b***h!!!!! While at it, you might as well put new valve cover gaskets on. Makes it a lot easier w/ intake off. Was able to get 16 O-rings, upper intake gasket, and valve cover gaskets for <$30.
