It was the brass T piece that was poorly cast. The two parts of the mould were not properly aligned when the metal was poured in so there was an offset and a large witness.
Even clamped tight the hoses wouldn’t seal, it would have been even worse on the pressure side!
I dressed the part with a file to get the arms of the T round enough to seal and I’ve had no leaks since.
I’m not at home at the mo but when I am I will see if the pics of the part are on my old laptop. The PhotoPhuket account is gone.
