I just got in from checking out the leak. The cap on the cylinder had been brazed on instead of welded. The leak is right at the end of the bead. If the fella who did the brazing would have continued just a little further it would have been sealed. I tried adding a little more brass to it, but I couldn't get it to seal.

So I filed the brass flat where the hole was and clamped a piece of cork/neoprene gasket material on it. It holds oil, but will have to be fixed right at a later time. Right now I'm using it for another project. Before I do a proper repair I want to finish the project I'm welding together, but before I can proceed with that I need to replace the cord on my angle grinder. But before I even start any of that I have to take my mother in law to a doctor appointment.
