The valves look clean and seem to operate as designed. The o-rings and plastic washer look ok as well.

Do they wear out such that a visual inspection is worthless?

I can't find the source of the leak but I suspect there is a gasket between the pump and the rear-end. The "L tube" is snugged tight.

It's a 1250 with a 2050063 SN and I think was one of the first in the QL series.
The valves have little "O" rings that seal the plungers that move up/down, they wear out/become brittle, you can't see them, I'm sure somebody will post a cutaway.
The nylon rings and "O" rings you can see where they screw in, seldom give problems.
There is a cork gaskett where the hydro and rear end meet, they all leak after 30 years, it is just a matter of when.
It's not too hard to fix, we have all been there.
You have some choices as far as replacing the valves if leaking/bad.
Buy from cub cadet, pay with first born, right arm, and left testicle.
Or go with a guy who rebuilds on evilpay, or buy from LJ fluid power.(better choices)
I don't like to chance used ones as my luck they would be leakers.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
