I doubled checked the first stage and the SR2 doesn't have the same potential plastic issues. Here are two pics. Is the seating still potentially an issue? Would be strange is certified techs messed this up? Pics attached...

If I have the timeline right, that is near instaneous turn around with Sherwood. How did you do that? Or were they already familiar with the issue once contacted, diagnosed it sight unseen, and old/new parts are still in transit?That probably wasn’t the best pictures to post (it was a blown o-ring) but...
Great advise everyone and spot on. Sherwood warranty repairs jumped in and expediated a repair since my computer was also acting up and I am leaving for a trip in 10 days.
Haven’t tested it post repair (two weeks from now) but Sherwood said the HPPs (both) were too shallow and swapped out my first stage. Not sure if a manufacturing lot defect or affected early productions but appreciate their quick service (kudos!). I have bought a short HP hose and o-rings to take with me just in case.
Thank you for everyone’s advice!
