Rainmaker leak

So my Rainmaker that I've had for 8 years (and only used 4 times) has a leak now. I'm thinking it's the cup seal but I'd like to know if anyone has any other ideas. It seems to be coming from just inside the gun by the lpr and the cup seal does look slightly worn. Would there be any other guns I could steal a cup seal from?

Cup seal leaks vent down the barrel.

I would think you've got a cut o-ring or a leak in the LPR line/LPR assembly.

Check and make sure one of the cheap-*** plastic lp fittings isn't cracked or loose. Is it a torrential leak or just small hiss?

Well the bolt will still partially cycle if I air it up but the leak is pretty bad. I know two people in my area that used to be fairly good at working on Rainmakers but it's hard to get them to do anything to any gun. So is the general consensus that I probably have something wrong inside the lpr? But non-the-less the cup seal does seem pretty chewed up, is there another gun I could steal one from just in case it's not the lpr?

I believe a Spyder cupseal will work.
