I assume that you mean that the line is leaking at the red arrows. If so, it is probably not related directly to pressure - any stress on the line (usually bending but could also be axial) can cause a leak where the connector attaches/seals to the line itself. Either way, now that you know where the leaks are, they are a fairly straightforward repair.
