You might check into a "wicking sealant". I know permatex makes one, but
I don't know the part number. Do it at night since it is not aircraft
stuff. It has worked for me on a variety of leaks on transmissions and
transaxles. Of course you need to remove the RTV and clean the area with
brake cleaner first.

Another issue is that RTV will degrade if exposed to too much fuel or oil.
I'd remove it, clean the area, and re-seal with something like Proseal,
which is a two part sealant used for fuel tanks. The stuff is incredible...
