Yes, if there's visible leak on a fuel injector can lead to an MOT failure.

That said, an issue with an injector will have an impact on engine performance and will likely result in excess emissions, which can also lead to an MOT failure. If you have a faulty injector it is imperative to get it checked and fixed as soon as possible by a professional mechanic. A fuel leak is a fire hazard and can be dangerous.
