It is possible the original owner put the bypass in. The guy I bought it from probably doesn't have the ability for that, from what I gather talking to him, if you know what I mean.

I am pretty sure the leak is in the collar of the tee fitting. when its dry I don't see an flow from the threaded side of the fitting behind it.
I can't get my head in there to watch the back of the tee completely.

Thanks for the help.
