Default Freon Leak from Drain Hose

I was recharging my AC and I noticed I was getting low pressure readings. Soon I saw dye on my driveway, which had leaked from the drain hose. I have a couple of questions in how to proceed.

1. Where exactly could the leak be coming from? What are the chances the evaporator sprung a leak versus an o-ring?

2. If I have to get a new evaporator if it is broken, can I just get one from Autozone for $100 or risk eBay to save 40 bucks? Has anyone bought an evaporator Fromm eBay?

So.... nobody has any answers?

Does anybody have pics with the dashed removed? How difficult is the evaporator unit to get to?
