Air leak or Water leak?

water hose if leaking will let either steam or water out, air hose might have visable crack/ split - to confirm dab some water onto the split and see if it bubbles with the air

Get some soapy water in a spray bottle and spray the hoses in question. If you see bubbles.. leak.... This is for air leak.

You could also use some type of smoke system to run through it.

Easiest is soap.

For water leak.... uhhhh dripping liquid?
