Should I just RTV over it? Or maybe JB weld?
Thanks for the quick response!
I also had condensation in my oil when I checked it (looked like chocolate milk and after letting it sit the water separated from the oil. I wonder If this could be the culprit?
The water header cover leaking coolant has nothing to do with condensation getting in the engine oil. You need to change the oil and the filter NOW, and then watch the oil for future contamination which could be the result of internal coolant leaks such as a cracked block, cracked head, or a bad head gasket.
Applying more RTV to an existing coolant leak will be only a temporary, band aid fix. To fix it right, you need to remove that cover, clean everything good, get a new gasket, and re-install. While you have the cover off, inspect it good. You may find it to be rusted away beyond use.
