Hey Dan it is common for them to get vibrated, cracked and leak around either end of the tube elbow. Original Cobra tanks used gussets on the steel angle bracket to help with that. If you check my cooling system page you'll see one picture showing the gussets and another with them in place. The gussets make it a little harder to get to the tube but the increased longevity is worth it.
