Sign of an A/C leak? *pic*
I went to look at my front sight glass to check for bubbles in the fluid and it appeared to be pretty greasy around the connections, is this a common symptom of a leak?

Thats refrigerant oil b/c oil travels with the refrigerant. Probally just need to get some o-rings perhaps? Not to familiar with automotive air conditioning. I'm a Carrier tech armed with the smarts and the parts. Yeah very corny, I know.

You are totally in the wrong, the refrigerant(gas) travels with the refrigeration oil, so-if there is oil present, that is an indication of a leak.

If you can see bubbles in that window you got a leak somewhere. By the looks of that drier it is leaking from the o-rings. Like previously stated: replace o-rings,vac system,recharge with new freon/oil.
