Boost Leak Where throttle Cable Attaches...

Ok, i was just wondering what i can do to fix this leak that is coming from my throttle flipper thing (Don't kno the proper name lol) It's the black piece that attackeches to the Throttle body. It has a spring on it to push the throttle cable back out when u hit the gas.. I know that the air is shooting out because when i push down on the throttle flapper to open the throttle plate inside the throttle body the air sound get quieter and as soon as i let off again air starts pouring out more... Is there a gasket or something that went bad? Any ideas?

Never Mind Found my answer after searching for 20 mins lol. Thanks. I need new seals..

I got MilSpec shaft seals when my OEM ones were leaky. Theyve held up great to the stock turbo and 30psi so far and I installed them back in August or September. Just be sure to lube em up liberally before install, follow the how to.
