You can use a straw and some spit, to locate the leak...it could be on the hose barb or the minifold could be loose.

Slightly tighten the screws which hold the noid to the minifold.

Ideally, put a slight smear of lube on the o-rings, in the minifold (after unscrewing) then screw back together and nip it up a touch.

If not, try flipping the o-rings over, lubing, then screwing back together.

If not, come back and tell us, so we can laugh at your misfortune.

Or tell us it's fixed.
