It could be the top and bottom tank seams that are leaking on yours. In
this case recoring would be a waste of money, for whilst it would probably
fix the leak simply resoldering the seams may fix it. However after
home-resoldering on my V8 they split again not long after so I replaced it
with an uprated unit, maybe I just didn't get it hot enough over a large
enough area.
