A rebuild or simple adjustment can make it stop leaking if it is coming out of mouth piece if it is leaking from anywhere but mouthpiece or hose connection it needs service.
Hello, there are a few things that may have happened. Often octos pick up sand and grit when they get dragged on the bottom. Try a good vigorous shake in fresh water. After that your moving into badly seated diaphram, split diaphram or slight hole, badly adjusted spring etc etc etc. Would recommend that perhaps you get it serviced. Especially important if you have been using Nitrox. Hope that helps
If I understand your question properly, all you need to do is remove one low pressure plug from the first stage regulator, then screw the hose end in from the new octopus.
The reason to have it on the right is because that is "standard". I dive with a long hose (7') and an octo around my neck on a 22" hose. So long as you explain it to anybody you dive with and talk about your plan for air sharing in advance, it shouldn't be an issue.
