valve leak (is this normal?)

I see in your picture above that you have no slide over collars on your hyd hose - the collar secures the rubber hose to the nipples as the hose may expand under pressure & pop off the barbed nipples. Your pressure is factory set to 12bar?

Yes. So it said on the pump details. It might be 10bar too. I haven't touched that in any case.

I have collars on the Y splitters and the extensions for the bucket. These connections are very aggressive 2 notches that i can't imagine coming off or expanding. I haven't noticed anything going on with them anyway. The oil on the hoses/nipples is leak back from my old leaking cyllinder on the boom, and some from the exploding tank a few days ago. Just never cleaned it up very well.
