[robkiller]

Did you look for it in the TM?

Google search the NSN you found in the TM?

Does it simply need to be resealed and tightened?

I believe that's just a 90 degree elbow...see 1st pic below. The fitting on top of that is called an inverted flare 90 degree female (see 2nd pic). If the 90 is just pipe threads (NPT) then that's all you need. If it has steel tubing going into it, then you need a 90 degree elbow with an inverted flare to mate with the tubing nut. I couldn't tell if the 90 has a line coming in from the bottom also, but if it does then you have a have what's called a female branch tee (see 3rd pic). All brass stuff available from NAPA or any pipe supply wholesaler and multiple sources online.

As doghead said, you could probably just remove the connected lines (carefully & apply some spray lube first), clean them up and reinstall with thread sealant (on the NPT only) and air blow any fittings to clear out any debris that might be causing the flare fittings to not seat properly.

Also look for a possible crack on the flare area on the tubing or maybe a crack in the tubing itself.

Use a line (aka flare wrench) wrench on the tubing fittings if you have one.

I will check to see if it needs tighting. I was not able to find it in the manual if thats what tm is.

This is correct, In TM 9-6115-584-24P, fig #38, item # 30 is a modifed tee, pipe(nsn: 4730-00-165-0967)
Should be able to tighten the fittings to stop the oil leak.

So i got into that area even more and it would appear that part #31 may be bad. It looks like i have a crack in it vertically. See pics let me know what you think.

 

[doghead]

In the first pic, I think I see it as cracked. Not sure.

You should be able to feel it with your fingernail.

That should be an easy trinket to get at homecheapo. If you can't find one, I might be able to help(no storms to delay delivery this time!).

It appears that the piece with the crack is just a brass coupling, but hard to tell just from pictures.
