    you may be able to seal the GC from the inside with the application of an oil resistant product …  (JB weld ??)

    I have a nice  CD 5.5hp with a simliar problem but can’t feel the crack but it does leak…  from somewhere !

    when I have time i’ll mix in some UV dye  in the GC oil  and  flash a UV lamp to  see where it leaks. … probably will have to split the GC  lower half to reseal it from the inside…after a good   wash & rinse with  lacquer thinner   followed up  with  something…to seal it

    maybe crazy glue can seep in the crack and  seal it good ?
