You've suggested all the things it could be I think, Either you have a leak somewhere. The diffuser is faulty or your regulator can't supply the pressure needed to operate the diffuser.
Another thing to check is the hole you have drilled in the filter cap for the air line is not too small. If its to tight it will cause the air line to pinch together and cause a block.
I did the same thing on mine but used co2 tubing instead of silicone tubing, co2 tubing is much more rigid and wont pinch together like silicone tubing will.
are you sure your diffusers are the same as foxfish's, if you bought 6 you spent over £60 on diffusers!???
Lastly, its pretty much trial and error with these reactors. I found mine to work much better with no diffuser at all.
