Introduction
Unfortunately, this issue occurs often with De Longhi ECAM machines. The expansion chamber is sealed very poorly, and therefore, the problem is difficult to fix. Here's how you can try sealing the expansion chamber with a piece of household rubber.
Keep the screws well sorted, they have different lengths.

Als Dichtung eignet sich Silikonschlauch Außen 3mm x Innen 2mm hervorragend. Ein Stück von 15-20cm ist ausreichend. Wichtig ist ja vor allem der untere Bereich.
Can you please post a link to a gasket that fits ? Amazon or similar?
Ok; do you think it would be better to cut the hose in the direction of the length, in order to wrap the other piece of plastic? or it has to be put in the slot as it is?
Use it, as it is. I myself took a normal rubber band from the kitchen and it worked.
