There is a white plastic latex? tape used by plumbers that works quite well.
Wrap it around the treads of your plug and tighten.

I've got both thread sealant and Hylomar, and a fresh fiber washer on mine
and it still leaks. It's annoying, but the improvement in shifting is worth
it, IMO.

I find the Redline in the gear box leaks even when the car is parked for
week/months. I got a special wrencdh form BCS to make sure the brass plug is
very tight. No joy. Has any one used a sealer like Halomar (sorry for
spelling) on the threads of this plug with success.
