Foot valve. The black rubber flap is the exhaust, if it’s leaking from there something inside is bypassing.

If you are having issues with the foot valve try disconnecting airlines to the trailer. I had a trailer back feeding any time I would set the trailer brakes and was about to replace that valve till I figured it out.

It's actually an older truck and the valve is located behind the air cleaner and the round rubber part is on the drivers side with the broom stick pointing at it.
Is there a quick hack that I'm missing?
