EAS dryer is easy and cheap to replace. Don't bother f*cking about refilling the dessicant.

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm sure I remember someone saying those red O rings are a bad idea. I got my valve block/ compressor kit from this lot:

The leaking oil pipes are the engine oil cooler, the gearbox one is behind the bumper where the passenger fog light would go, the cooler pipes do not come off the cooler very well and usually wreck the threads so new cooler and pipes
In the first pic the two by the alternator are oil cooler the gearbox ones can be seen in the second pic running under the engine mount and oil filter housing
you can carefully cut the clamps of the rubber bit clean up the metal pipe and clamp new hose on but it is a fiddle.
Good point, I have a Dremel and probably sufficient suitable oil proof hose so it's worth a shot
Think that was Wammers.That was ringing bells with me about the red rings
+1 for X8R
I would do completely opposite of what he is doing though unfortunately
no coils you may as well have bought a Freelander if you do thatGo coils you mean?
As for the desiccant, open the dryer, spread the material out on an oven tray, put into the oven, 100c for an hour to 90 mins, reuse.
If you do go down the refurb route on the drier then make sure you change the collets and O-rings in the drier ports and when you seal the top of the air drier back on use a good gasket sealant that will stop any leaks.I had considered it, but the desiccant has started to denurture and crumble so is beyond saving
