I had this also, but with the long inflator-hose. Thought is was the O-ring, and removed hose, cleaned O-ring, remounted. The no leaks. But now its leaking more, and its clearly at the end of the Hose-Crimp (discovered during dive yesterday).
I think the kinks from the original Apeks-DS4's makes it worse. Just mounted the new type Apeks-rEvo 1st.stage with a LOT less kink at the hose-crimps, so the hose was straithend, and this probably aggrevated the bad crimp...

Same Issue at O2-side, but its holding for now.

Paul, anything you want me todo with the defect inflator-hose?
AS you know I'm on my own regarding hoses very soon, but I would like to be able to bring it back to original state, so I'll need a new one.

Right now the rEvo is grounded, and anyway I'm on OC for the next 3 weeks

My wing inflate hose went today at exactly the same place. I'm now worried about the O2 side given what you've said above.
