I went over to the AC shop that built my AC hoses. At the front counter was "the old man" that started the place. I pointed at the spot where the leak and told his they had built the hoses 10 years or so ago. He said, "that looks like a bad crimp, and I am the one that likely built it back then." So in a joking way I said "OK, no more practice, just make a perfect crimp this time!" and he laughed. So hopefully in an hour I can go back and get my car back together. I will pressurize it again, and see that it noes not leak out the nitrogen. Then replace the orifice tube and accumulator and all the necessary seals and o-rings, purge with nitrogen, vacuum, purge, vacuum, and charge.
