Evidently this is a common issue on the MX5100s? It leaks about 3 tablespoons once parked. I’m an ex mechanic of 15 years and avid drag racer so I’m thinking about taking on this job. What am I looking at? I hear I will need to split the tractor to do the job? Looking for advice!

Is that a weep hole? Even in my younger years 3 tablespoons when parked would not be enough to get me to undertake a split.
