Where exactly are you seeing the leak? I can’t say as I’ve ever had a problem resealing the skeg as long as it’s the matching skeg to the housing. Is the spaghetti seal cut square and overlapping the gear case head a bit? The 847 is thick and should adequately seal up any small imperfections without aggressive sanding. Are you using the 847 around the bolt holes and into the threads themselves? I like to goop it on reasonably thick around all the mating surfaces and the o-ring being careful not to allow much excess 847 to squeeze into the gear case.
