Was checking my oil filter for any leaks and noticed a hose that seems to be leaking. The hose has "PA66-GF30" on it but when I search for that it only brings up Dico stuff? Below are a couple of pictures. One with me wiping it with a towel and then one thats a few seconds latter starting to leak again. Its almost like the hose is starting to burst? or it got sliced somehow?

Anyone help me on what this hose is and how serious it is to get it fixed/replaced ASAP?

Yes sorry...2015 SCV6

Yup I think your correct and here is a picture I "Believe" is the leak location. When looking at the hose it seems like JUST this small portion can be replaced instead of the entire assembly. Thoughts?

I don't know that they sell just the plastic part, or are you suggesting you buy the whole thing, and swap just the plastic part in? Either way you're going to need to bleed the system, and I would prefer to get all the fresh hoses in there since you'll have them on hand. The little hoses go to the 'intercooler' bits in the supercharger, shouldn't be that hard to access since it's top of motor.

Also, I think that hose connects to the front crossover, so maybe worth getting that done if you haven't already?
