Leak in a elbo fitting on my front loader curl function

Just FYI there are many types of hydraulic fittings. This particular one is called "SAE O-ring Boss" or ORB commonly. Discount hydraulic hose has a great guide and you can also buy o-rings from them, if it is easier than finding a local shop

I fixed it.

kind a feel stupid the the fitting was lose... I used a wrench and turn it about 2.5 turn. I played with it for about 2 min and it look like it does not leak anymore.

I would not be supprized tha the leak come back. I'll keep and eye open and if it does I'll dissemble it

It happens to very best of us. At least it was an easy and free fix.

Thanks for the update.

Glad you got it resolved. Im late to the party but I was gonna suggest tightening the nut cause it looked loose to me
