what sealer did you use? not sure if this product is available your way - i use permatex "non hardening" easy way to find the leak is to spray water (mist) on suspect areas, when it changes revs you know you found it.
This is exactly what I used. I think it used to be called Indian Head. After I used it, a friend of mine told me it was a mistake because it dries out over time. He recommended silicone instead. I may just drive it like this for a while. It's running pretty darn good. But yes, spraying water at the base does cause it to change a little.
