Either sender unit or high pressure pump. More often the sender unit, see if you hear a buzz near driver side rear wheel arch.

Sounds like the pressure regulator O rings are letting fuel past, preventing sufficient injection pressure at cranking speed.

Yes, it's sticking out the end of the HP pump.
