Valken Proton leak issue

I have a proton that is leaking through grip frame. Through what i believe to be the purge hole. Oring between the asa and grip frame seem to be in good shape. Not sure how much knowledge on the proton there is out there as of now. Just thought I would give it a shot. Hope someone can help Thanks.!

Leaking between the Asa and the grip frame??

Tighten the two screws on the lower end of the grip frame. Mine did the same thing out of the box. Just tighten those two screws and it'll stop leaking.

No, its leaking on the side of the grip frame. Through the hole above the two set screws. Between the asa and grip frame is fine.

Drop some oil in it, and cycle the ASA a few times. The purge might be sticking

Seems like it may have helped a little, but still leaking!
