Saggy P38- diagnosis please?

Well, here's a slightly weird one.
'98 4.0L RR is leaking air somewhere. Compressor is running most of the
time, presumably to keep the front up- but that's the weird thing. I's the
whole front axle that has a problem- not just one side or t'other, as has
been the case previously. In fact the drivers' side airbag is relatively
new- around 2 years. Pass. side is original. I can't hear any leaks, yet if
the car is left for any length of time, say an hour, the front is on the
bumpstops, but the back hasn't lowered to match; another weirdness, since
the car usually tries to keep itself level. I've sprayed the valve block
with soapy water to try and find leaks there to no avail. EAS hasn't faulted
yet.

Why would this happen relatively suddenly? To both bags? Any ideas?

Your thoughts ladies & gentlemen?

TIA

Try the air harness itself they can spring leaks(easily fixed with 8mm
inline air connectors)

Check for any blowing from the exhaust, as this can melt the air harness.
