Baffled why a certain note squeaks

The low F#. Sounds fine when played with the right hand pinkie, but squeaks or otherwise sounds bad from the left hand pinkie lever. The clarinet joints seal tightly when tested, F# key works the same from either side. I wonder if it's the ergonomics of my left hand moving slightly when the left pinkie is trying to activate the lever? I try hard to keep the ring keys sealed, but i might be getting a leak somewhere.

Clarinet was adjusted and regulated by me. Old original leather pads.
