Really hmm, those hoses are tough.. Plus they have a little metal corrugated hose running in the middle of that rubber hose... ( I cut one open)

That would be the first I've seen leak from that spot

I'll take another close look again when I replace the rack but there was a lot of fluid there where it goes together. I guess it could be spraying from somewhere else onto there...

From my understanding the return hose has been discontinued. There is a thread somewhere that details how to reuse the barb/crimp fitting with a new rubber hose

Oh okay. I'll check it out? So there is nowhere to buy a new one?
