i suspect seal. i do have two ports which have the silver probe .and function as inlets .i did tighten .loop is about year old .this started about 3 months ago .first suspected leak but have not seen a drop . i actual have two loops .the other for cpu .no issue .was thinking of adding water inlet on side of case .but if i can avoid it i would prefer .

it can be any joint that causing this.
there is a simple way to try to find it:
turn off computer, connect some tube to the fill port of the loop, blow in to the tube by slowly increasing pressure.
you might see a few drops of water where the seal is not perfect.
Just don't blow too hard. some fittings can hold only few bar

great idea , my configuration ..makes it difficult . since i added my temp and fan control above fill ports .i believe i might have to rethink and reconfigure my lay out .were it will be fill port friendly . presently i have to disconnect front panel and remove temp fan indicator without pulling wires from unit to access fill port .reason for concern .

having convenient fill and drain port is very important when designing a loop.
I also invest some time to design a loop in a way that will ease the processes of bleeding air and draining the system - no up and down, cascading the connections
