Overfilled hydro

While switching my 7116H back over to summer duty, I checked the hydro fluid and realized I had overfilled it last time. Removing the cap allowed about 2oz to run out on it's own with the vent tube open, which moved freely. I had noticed a slow leak all winter that I hadn't been able to track down but would leave a small puddle between uses. Would the hydro being overfilled have caused this, and is there any possible damage I should be watching out for?

That's what I figured. It didn't seem to be leaking out the breather/vent cap, but who knows.
