Anti-leak oil additives are only a temporary solution, as they cause your gaskets to swell and also to partially dissolve/decompose, or whatever. In this case, I wouldn't recommend it. You would be much better off replacing the gasket itself and then going from there.. Just my opinion, though..

Sounds good to me. Like I said, just be sure to replace it asap as that stuff is essentially like that "Fix-a-Flat" crap-- it's really only supposed to be temporary.

Glad I could help.
