this unit mounted on the side of the engine is leaking somewhere by both line outlets underneath. Not really dripping but it is all wet with debri sticking to it. anyone else notice such an issue? machine has less than 150 hrs. any thoughts? only noticed it because I was laying under machine inspecting undercarriage for things like this

That's one of two hydraulic pumps for your tractor. They're facing each other. I forget... if the main implement pump is closest to the cab or if the power steering/auxiliary hyd pump is the one that's closest to the cab. Either way; it's one or the other!

It's a compression fitting and it may just need to be snugged up a bit. The technical repair manual has the torque specs to tighten it. Or... since it's under warranty - your dealer might be able to provide that (and a torque wrench - loaner).
