Pulled the marker arm assembly out of the 7000 planter today. Every last piece. I was pretty heavily persuaded that the leak was in the steel pipe inside but when I pulled it out it still had paint on it and no sign of a leak. Ran the whole system and could not spot a defect. One small mouse nest deep in there soaked like everything else (including me) in hydraulic fluid. Hooked the whole system back together outside the planter and fired up the tractor.
