Mine came with a strip of black foam rubber on the "frame side" of the blue adjuster so there's no metal on metal contact. Head to a hardware store and pick up some that's about 1/8" thick and stick it on the side of the blue adjuster.
Leakage probably isn't a good thing. I haven't had any leaks, but I have had the brain "stuck open" where it wouldn't lock the shock out at all. I had to send it in to Fox. Took about 2 weeks or so with 2nd day shipping. Luckily it was during the TdF so I was inside watching that instead of riding anyway
I'd make a few calls if I were you. If you're leaking, you're going to run out of oil sooner or later and it's not like you can refill that rear shock yourself like it's a front fork.
