I checked the airline and brass fittings, they were fine. I need to check the nut, I did not think about that.
Thanks Brutal.

Those are not vents. Theyre just holes in the top of the shock mount over the foam upper shock bushing that is also open all along the side inside the center ring for the shock nut and shaft. That is a captured bushing idf there is a air leak in the top of the mount behind that bushing it is not repairable. Be sure and tighten that shock nut on the shaft because that lets the top plate come loose inside, and verify the air line and adpter it threads into are not leaking. These are also 2 leak points

Just an update, the car has been behaving itself for the past 2 months with no remedial action done on it, so at this point I have no idea what caused the problem in the first place. The only thing that has changed is the weather as we've gone past the rainy season in November/December where we had daily heavy downpours. Now we only have downpours maybe once / week or less. My guess is that the cat doesn't like water.. Will watch and see if anything develops.
