There is nothing like that old saying - "A picture is worth a thousand words" - so how about taking a picture(s) of this machine in an undressed state and pointing out where you believe (or know) the leak to be.

I'll try to get pictures up. I can tell you that the pinhole leak is at the brazing area. I can also say that my last place I got the machine serviced at probably caused this by too aggressive descaling.

Well I put the machine on Craigslist and I got an offer for $450. I'm not sure if I should sell it. I ended up not sending it to Chris Coffee due to the fact that I figured I could rebuild the group for $35 and save a ton on shipping.
