It burns off immediately but before you press that start button there is an excess of fuel in the cylinder (which bogs down the engine) and then is quickly burned off. You should not sit and let it warm up which I just learned the other day, Im not sure who posted on this? Maybe clap135? but its actually in your bmw manual. It says to start her up and drive right away. Im not gonna get into the tech side to it but if you do some searching on here you will find out why you shouldnt...as far as us all having leaking injectors...No, its kinda like the hpfp. They degrade over time, especially those of us who have highly modded engines and added stess is put on these engine components.
