Dave,
You have two aux conpressors in the driver front bay, correct?
Look in the rear wheel well in front of the drive tire on the passenger side for a small tank.
As Bill said, everytime you find a leaking push on connector, replace it with a DOT compression fitting. I like McMaster Carr for sourcing those, but your local Fleetpride or Truck Pro will have them also. Do not use the compression fittings sourced from Home Depot/Lowes/Ace except in an emergency. They are not DOT rated.
You may have to replace than entire manifold in the first picture if you want to get away from plastic. Nothing complex about it at all.
In a pinch, you can pull the line out of the push on fitting and snip off 1/4 inch cleanly. Sometimes this will cure a leaking fitting, IF Newell left enough slack to reach.
