Lagonia,
Do you know if that o-ring is a parts store item? I just replaced the aux pump today and have developed a leak from that exact joint. Nice pictures! You were the first person I've found to address those particular hoses and connections.
Thank you!
Ryan

I have had the same problem,hoses bloated and soft. Was going to cut old off, but the plastic is also suspect on the snap joint to the header tank.

Part number for XJR is: C2C19596
