The apron on my G4003G is quite leaky. There isn't one obvious spot where its coming from - drops of oil hanging from a couple spots on the apron (particularly the worm bracket on the left-hand bottom of the apron), feed rod, shift rod, and of course all over the pan. My understanding is that can be is a somewhat common problem out of the box. Mine is leaking enough that it should be addressed. The apron oil level is right on the red dot in the sight glass (not over-filled).
I believe the general fix is to just pull the apron apart and re-assemble with RTV on the halves. Sound right? Is there was anything specific I should look at or parts (gaskets, if they even exist) to have at the ready prior to pulling the apron off?
