After watching your video I think it may actually be coming from this hose.
You can always upload to youtube and just set it to Private, meaning only those with a link can see it.Tried to make a GIF of a video I took, but still won't let me upload it here. Found somewhere else to upload it, here's the link. https://gifyu.com/image/Xnfr
Not great quality, but gets the point across. Sure looks like just a blown seal (o ring) to me.
Wow, you know what, you might be right. It sure looked like it was where I put the arrow, but I didn't want to get my face or hands too close, and risk getting injured. I watched my original video in slow-mo, and it sure does look like it's coming from the hard line. I think it's the one below where you circled though. I'll have to see if I can get the camera in there, with the tractor off, and see if I can get a picture of the other side of those lines.
Easy way is to slip something, like a piece of scrap plywood, in between and see which side gets wet.Wow, you know what, you might be right.

Thank you for pointing this out!
I agree, hose/tube is the culprit.
Yep, I was super worried about it last night, seemed like it was going to be a nightmare, and I've still got lots of mowing left to do. Still gotta wait til monday to find the o-ring somewhere locally, but I'll sleep better tonight, knowing that I don't have to spend a fortune or wait for parts. Thanks again for pointing out the actual leak location, really helped me out quite a bit!Looks like a easy repair. Glad you located the problem.
