I agree with Ron. I parked my car over a clean surface, waited a couple of
days, then used a plumb to estimate the area of the drip. Sure enough, the
OD actuator side cover plate. I subsequently found out that a gasket is no
longer made for this, so I used some Permatex. Eliminated most of the
problem.
