 Dave, remove the cover, wash throughly with solvent followed by hot soap and water.  Dry very throughly, preferably with blowing air.  In a darkened room, hold the cover up to a bright light.  Any pin points of light, no matter how small, will leak.  A more remote possibility is that a leak from casting porosity, or a crack, leaks under the paint and comes out some distance from the source.  In any event, a leak through the cover is not unpresedented, just a little rare.
