Lower control arm bushes leaking

As above, as part of my front end rebuild, I replaced the lower control arms, both sides along with new drip links and struts etc. Car drives lovely and straight after this work with all the knocks gone…a good result. Having checked under the car today, I note the offside hydra bush has got a slight leak of oil on it, after approx 3 moonths in use and 2500 miles I’m surprised at this . car still drives Bob on. These were Delphi units, so not cheap nasty stuff, and a friend with the same car has just replaced a Delphi arm at 12months old with same issue. Is this likely a bad batch, is Delphi not what it was. For what’s it’s worth, when I rebuilt the car, I left everything hand tight until the car was back on its wheels before torquing the bolts up to make sure that everything was in it’s settled position. Any thoughts please
