   My preference is to fix the problem, but thought of that if it looks like a   
   spot that I could just put some JB Weld on it without any long term problems.     
      
   I need to wait until it is dark outside to give it another look to see if I   
   can find any other areas that might be leaking.  So far, it appears to just be   
   that one spot.
