I wanted to come in here and say something about helium being so small that a small leak would be very easy to miss but 5?

Not to mention that they make helium leak detectors. I'm not an expert but I built a helium tight 60000psi system a couple weeks ago first try. Granted it didn't have to survive a trip on a rocket.
