During my annual I was hunting all those little oil leaks I discovered over the last year. I was quite succesfull but one little leak still remains. The swivel joint of the Christen sump fitting (see pic from the eagle manual) shows a few drops every hour.

I can't find any details on the fitting and wonder if its an easy fix by simply replacing o-rings or do I need to replace the whole fitting?

And I guess replacement parts are only available through aviat. Right?
Thanks for your help
Mike
