Most brush entities have an origin point that you can move in Hammer. Sometimes the origin can accidentally get moved outside the map. Use the entity report to search for any entity with an origin that matches the coordinates in your leak. Then move the origin back to the actual location of the trigger_teleport.
For the skybox problem: make sure you don't have a sky_camera entity in your "real" map, just in the 3D skybox portion. Make sure the map doesn't leak into skybox portion.
