Sealant on threads of bolts in bottom plate. One of mine was drilled into housing and leaking around bolt after I rebuilt. I pulled bolts and added sealant on threads. It is dry now.

The holes for both of the bolts for the bottom plate on 2 tooth boxes are drilled into the housing. You should use a sealant on both of these bolts.
