elbow into water pump leak
in General Tech Discussion

Howdy, first post here
Rotax 912 uls has sprouted a leak at one of the bent sockets, or hose attachment inserts, into the water pump. See attached photo. The leak is minor but getting slightly worse with flight time. Engine has approx. 170 hours. Been sitting for past 3 years in heated hangar.
Will be changing out radiator soon, so will have coolant system drained.
Any ideas on how to slow, or stop, this leak without disassembly?
thanks and looking forward to much learning here
