I changed the o-rings on this connection to the hydraulic pump but it looks like fluid is still leaking out at the connection. What am I missing?

Looks like the leak is higher up. What is the the yellow line? It looks dripping wet.

Good point. What was the original situation that you thought you needed to change the o-rings ? Maybe it was a false flag. Like TinHack suggests here !

Well. I would stand outside the tractor and move the joystick and see fluid spray out at the connection but maybe I miscalculated. I want about to stick my face in there and get sprayed. I'll need to check again. Maybe later today when I can get over there. Would be great if it was something simple.

Yellow line is just the hydraulic cover when they are disconnected.
Are talking about a Hydraulic Quick Connect? Why is it wet? If the leak is indeed coming from the flanges, you probably used the wrong seal.

Get a piece of board 2-3 ft long and use the board to show oil spray. Use a board the length suggested to keep fingers(use gloves to) away from high preassure spray. Oil in the blood is a hospital job

No. I have some leaks with those too when the hydraulics get hot but this is about the connection in the image I posted.
