Ok James here's what I think and should be looked at. The seals may not be set properly or worn out that's why there's a leak. The seals inside should look like this.

A small puncture or if it's not set properly can cause it to leak on the breather or vent tube. Sometimes this seals are overlooked even by the pros. Is there anything else I can add or help you with?
