btw it's not just 'the swivel that's leaking' it is 'The swivels that are leaking'. the one on the processor is leaking too though it leaks slowly onto the northbridge cooler where the liquid evaporates so it doesn't cause hell to break loose.
I think the EK's might still be a bit too thick for that area. I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss the MCRs, they were designed by BillA after all. Not sure what RPM your Noctua is running at but compare the Fester to the MCR (non stacked) for some eye opening results.
