I would check the hydraulic lines they come loose if the tec didnt cinch them down correctly. when you spin them tight the twisting movement that the hose makes packs energy that is always trying to move the fitting lose. that energy is magnified 200 or more times when the hose fills with fluid and the plys stand true. Cant find it in t-paper rolls but light blue kleenX works great at finding leaks. the paper turns dark blue.

here is a thread that has some discussions about possibilities for your leak along the lines David touched on. I hope it is a hose
