If the drip is showing up in the cylinder, above the piston. There is a need to check the sleeve and cylinder casting for cracks. There are permanent magnet crack checking tools and fluid that can be taken to the tractor and used on site. If it is actually comming out of the sleeve then the cyl casting must be compromised. I do not recommend repairing broken cylinder castings. There is archive info on sleeves that will help you decide.
A used block is a better alternative, with a set of dry sleeves they are basically better than new.
Good luck finding a different cause for the apparent water.
