It transfers through by way of a small (white) plastic fitting, and on the far side the hose was too short & not well clamped. Longer length of hose with a loop took care of the leak & allows for engine movement. Just a possibility. Austin PS - unfortunately you missed a beautiful day @ Kelley Park (love the trolley barn)
