Car won't start

Drive train issue, diags show Open Circuit on injectors 2 & 3 and low pressure on rail.
This was after someone had tried to purchase it saying the engine had blow a gasket, squirted oil into the expansion tank and down the side of the engine. I have flushed out the oil from the water expansion tank, and cleaned the oil off the rest, however I can't find which lead has been either loosened or damaged to resolve this problem.

Best answer (according to RSnapes)
I have solved the issue, the people that came to view my car tried to scam me into selling it for less than it’s true worth, to achieve this, they put old oil in the expansion tank, down the side of the engine, over the manifold and injectors, they also eased back a connector on one of the injectors to cause a Fault and this stopped the engine from firing up.
