The "O" rings at the bottom of the sleeves are more commonly the problem. They need to be lubed with dish soap on the way in. some are not, and get nicked. Loose at the top is also a problem.

Both ends need to be sealed to prevent leakage. Normally the top is sealed by the sleeve rim, but on that one cylinder, it may be loose enough to become leaky. These are what I would do JimN
