Suspension air compressor

2006 Navigator 4X2

The air compressor stopped working. Hey, it was a good run of 16 years and nothing lasts forever.
Bought a new Arnott Compressor from a seller on Ebay
Got it four days ago and installed the new compressor two days ago.
The compressor runs. (And a lot quieter than my old one)
However, the system is not pumping air into the air springs.
The compressor and dryer are very much like the attached picture.
There are two nipples at the end of the dryer and one is plugged,
4X2 is a single line. 4X4 is two lines. I have a 4X2.

I pulled the single air line from the dryer. Turned on the key and the compressor runs. However, I do not feel any air coming out of the nipple.
I have messaged the seller yesterday and have not gotten a reply.
My question is - isn't air supposed to come out of the open dryer nipple when the compressor is running?
Or is there some kind of valving in the dryer?

If not, I assume I have a bad compressor.

I have found the problem.

After fiddling some more - the new compressor has an air leak between the dryer and the compressor outlet.
In the process of returning
