I would clean around where the injector seats into the head but I would not touch the actual injector tip. The general consensus on m57 injectors is to not try to clean them or even have them cleaned profesionnally. Just run them until they throw codes and then replace with new. I am sure its possible to clean them or refurbish them but more often than not it causes more issues.
Thanks for replaying!
About the washer- yes I have them, but when I pulled the injector out the washer was very loose so I just took him off to see what was going under, purchased today new washers, and hope they will come quickly.
OK, I'll take your advice about the cleaning and will leave it like that.
