## Discrepancy

STL TO CLE - DURING CLIMB AT APPROXIMATELY 17,000 FT WHILE ENTERING ICING CONDITIONS THE AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED A BLEED NR 2 LEAK.  THE QRH PROCEDURES WERE FOLLOWED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO FIELD AND LANDED WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE TROUBLESHOT THE BLEED LEAK AND FOUND A BROKEN CLAMP AND SEPARATED MANIFOLD AT JOINT 8 IN THE FECU COMPARTMENT.  AFTER REPLACING THE O-RING, CLAMP AND RESECURING THE JOINT THE BLEED SYSTEM OPS CHECKED GOOD.
