Im not much for diagnosing problems, so I appreciate the help. I was driving, car started to smell like gas so I go back home and pop the hood, under the 2 middle fuel injectors its all wet on the intake manifold. So does this mean I just have to replace those 2 fuel injectors or could it be a diffrent/more problems?

Was the liquid on the manifold gas? If it was then you'll probably have to do some work on the fuel injectors, probably replace them.

Well then the fuel injectors most likely need to be replaced.

yeah since i had been at college i just got home and found this problem, so first the battery was dead, and so i just jumped it and checked what was up with it. it is the middle right fuel injector and it is just dripping from what looks like the top left corner of it, so im glad its just the one fuel injector and i have no problem replacing the whole thing, but just for my own knowledge could it be leaking because its completely shot to **** or could it just be like an o-ring or something inside thats busted?

Could be just an o-ring, you'll just have to take it off and check.

it's most likely an O-Ring. I had a similar problem and got the replacemet rings from Nissan and the problem went away. Also make sure your fuel rail is not cracked or warped.
