    if you got it all apart already try taking it apart and giving it a good clean might do the trick ? if not a used one is cheap

    cant see why not but is it really worth bodging your oil supply last thing you need is a leak on a long run and you run out

    silicone gasket sealant wouldnt leak mate because its flexible and oil resistant

    check for a split in the pipe or it could just be the o-ring and you can get one easy from any screw fix/plumbing shop/b&q/homebase

    maybe it needs a rubber shit that is placed at the connection so it doesnt leak...

    yeehhhh thats what i think it is too it has a clamp that goes round the outside too that screws tight to form a seal so i'll replace to seal and put some gasket sealant for extra sealing
