Default turbo oil pipe weeping

hi all,

i have an my03 sti blob eye. as above my top oil pipe which comes off the turbo is weeping at the knuckle threaded joint not the banjo one. this will be the second one that has done this in just over 12 months. its not a mojor leak but drips onto the manifold/downpipe and burns then smokes out the bonnet. its not a problem for me to change but was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem before with there car?

cheers
