Put a ~12" piece of vaccumm hose on it, and zip-tie it to your upper PHB, and no more leaks.

Make sure you don't have too much fluid in the rear end, sounds like what the problem is !!

agreed, it sounds like too much rear end fluid. it leaks out the breather hole till it isnt too full. happened to mine. now it never leaks since i put in the correct fluid level.
