the seal is normally a "O" ring that is available from a good hardware shop or bearing supply shop
basically the same set up as your garden hose "O" ring but with a pressure wand there is a thread nut to hold the bits together.
If it is not that then the threaded section of the connection in the wand or hose mat be loose or broken at the thread
Sounds like water is leaking past the shutoff valve on the wand. Check your owners manual parts diagram to see if there is a washer or o-ring to replace.

Oil Consumption Diagnosis
Checks
Causes
Excessive oil consumption, not due to leaks, is the use of 1 L (1 qt) or more of engine oil within 3 200 kilometers (2,000 miles).
Preliminary
The causes of excessive oil consumption may include the following conditions:
• External oil leaks
Refer to Oil Leak Diagnosis .
• Incorrect oil level or improper reading of the oil level indicator
With the vehicle on a level surface, run the engine for a few minutes, allow adequate drain down time, 2-3 minutes, and measure for the correct engine oil level.
• Improper oil viscosity
Refer to the vehicle owners manual and use the recommended SAE grade and viscosity for the prevailing temperatures.
• Continuous high speed driving and/or severe usage
• Crankcase ventilation system restrictions or malfunctioning components
Refer to Crankcase Ventilation System Inspection/Diagnosis .
• Worn valve guides and/or valve stems
• Worn or improperly installed valve stem oil seals
Refer to Spark Plug Inspection .
• Piston rings broken, worn, or not seated properly
Allow adequate time for the rings to seat.
Replace worn piston rings, as necessary.
Refer to Cylinder Leakage Test .
• Piston and rings improperly installed or not fitted to the cylinder bore
Refer to Lower Engine Noise, Regardless of Engine Speed
If it's leaking it obviously has a bad seal or is broken. I would try to disassemble and see if it has a seal or not. Sounds like you could have a bad "O" Ring or some other type of seal leaking but I'd bet on an "0" Ring damaged or wore out. Dissemble it and see what is sealing it and proceed accordingly. Gillight
Hi Emily,
You have 2 issues.
Steam wand leaking while making coffee - This indicates that the seals on the steam tap o rings need replacing.
Coffee pouring over the handle when making coffee - this indicates that the group gasket needs replacing.
Replacing the group gasket is easy takes 10 min
Replacing the o rings on the steam tap may take a little longer..
All you need is a group service kit Ascaso gasket kit Dream Arc Basic
likely the ruber o ring is broken in the gun take the triger assembly apart and inspect also remember that if a piece is missing look down the barrel of the wand
likely it will be a piece of ruber stuck in the end of the wand
