## Discrepancy

(CAN) A HYD LEAK WAS FOUND DURING A GROUND RUN TO CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER MINOR MAINTENANCE. THE ENGINEER NOTICED HYD FLUID DRIPPING FROM AN ELBOW FITTING ON THE NR 1 HYD PUMP. THE FITTING AND LINE B-NUT WERE CHECKED AND FOUND SECURE. THE FITTING WAS REMOVED AND UPON FURTHER INSPECTION A CRACK WAS FOUND. THE AIRCRAFT WAS REMOVED FROM SERVICE AND A REPLACEMENT PART ORDERED.
