Buchi experts pliz help !

Set of used glassware (assembly C) was bought for this R-121 unit. Condenser assembly itself holds vacuum well, no leaks.

But when connected to vapor duct hissing noise comes from little hole on the bottom of the flange.

Not even sure if I have a right seal.. (KD-22?)

the seal should be allright, try greasing it a BIT. no idea what the "little hole" refers to.
