Polaris Quattro Sport leaking at hose connector, is this normal?

I have noticed that my Polaris Quattro Sport is leaking at the host connector. I have linked to a video of this. Do I need a new hose connector?

Last I checked the RPMs it seemed to be in normal range.

Is that part supposed to be pushed all the way down into the bottom receptacle?? Luckily, at least that leak is under the water so you're not "losing" any water.

I believe the part swivels, my thought was maybe an o-ring or something broke. I ordered a replacement hose connector and wil lsee if that leaks too. if so then I guess I know it's just how it is designed.

That connector is Quattro's known weak point. If you have ever pulled Quattro out of the pool by the hose, you broke it. You must lift it out of the pool by the handle.
