Jsts put new oil in the clubby and it's leaking. I had replaced the diff seals and this is the first time that I have had a gasket failure.
Question. To do it right I have to take the side cover off. Is there any other way to stop the oil leak?
I hate oil leaks in Minis and I have never put up with just a drip here or there.

do the bolts up tight and spray it with lacquer
