Default Leaking ACE fluid on Right Rear Arm - How to fix?

Just recently I noticed a significant ACE fluid leak that results in the red beeping ACE alarm.

Other than my current coolant leak issue, the only other spot I could find was on the right rear - below what I think is the ACE arm. That whole assembly seemed damp with fluid as well. Assuming this is the source, how do I fix it? Is there a common failure here? Should I just replace the whole arm/actuator?

Try tightening the nuts on the cylinder. If that doesnt help, you might have to get new hydraulic hoses.. I got a new one pressed at a hydraulic workshop, for a fraction of the cost of the original ones.

I'd say new ACE ram. I thought it might be the pipes or connections, but it was the Ram and I had a very similar fluid leak pattern under my 00 D2.
