Hello , so i had this PC with corsair hydro cooling ( i can't remember what exact model it is) for 4 years now, and today when i was about to clean the dust i noticed something that looks like tiny little cracks at the end of the rubber hoses where they get thicker and meet the cooler and CPU . Picture attached with URL. Is this something to worry about immediately ? And what actions should i take? Sorry about my English, i know it is not great and thank you for your help.

Solution
Looks like they are reaching the end of life and for me around 4 to 5 years is max use for an AIO, remember also the fluid will have been slowing evaporating. I would look to change now especially as AIO's have come down in price.

It is worrisome, I would think twice before using it. Usual safe use of AIOs is the length of their warranty.
