Hydraulic leak from brake accumulator

Hydraulic leak observed from the bottom of a cylinder (believed to be brake accumulator) located between the frame and loader. Leak appears to originate from hose connection and bottom of accumulator. Brakes still function properly.

CA: John Deere Review by Tommy from San Saba, TX I bought a 5302 John Dee
medium

I bought a 5302 John Deere 65hp Tractor in 2004. It was in the shop numerous times for leaking head gaskets, leaking hydrolic arms and lifts, and general shoddy performance. They supposedly ground down the heads and put new hydrolic armature lifts on it but it never worked right from the very beginning. Finally after plowing one day and stopping for lunch , just as I got to the house I heard this

Frame rail bolts

Jd 3020 These bolts keep coming out, there is only a couple threads left. Should they be tapped for a larger bolt? I would like a one time fix type of deal. Any recommendations?

General
Recomdation
low

Found this lovely mess of an engine mount on a newer to us JD 3020 diesel with 148 loader. Have a welder coming to see if he is even willing to attempt to weld it (I will do the machine work). I feel no amount of welding will ever be able to hold up to the loader. It would make a fine tractor for just about anything else. That unfortunately doesn't work for what we need. Looking for any advice or recommendations I may be overlooking. Just want to make the best decisions I can.

JD 3020 value
low

Curious what yall may think the value is of a jd 3020 gas narrow front. Now it is 100% mechanically overhauled. New engine clutch, wiring harness, carb, radiator, no bolt unturned. Tires good. Just needs a top coat and some minor things. Got the tractor for free and have about 4K into it. Curious what it may be worth now. Serial number is right around 100,000
