only thing i would do is mate is check to see if there is any split pipes and make sure all your hose clip are tightened up

Yep check for split hoses. The hoses can become brittle (unless silicone)and removing and refitting can then cause them to split. Also as said check your jubilee clips! If the crap type wire clips are fitted, might be worth upgrading them on main hoses.
