i have heard this happen before, did you make your own DP or buy a custom one from someone? Depending on what the DP is made of it could continue doing that and possible become brittle and fall apart do to heat not getting out cause of the wrap.

how can u be melting your return line, you should have a braided line and hopefully not a rubber hose? I would hope i'm wrong but change it out if you do.
