Dennis and List:

The cap appears to be leaking from around the edges. It DOES NOT have a hole in it. However, after I took out the half shaft on the other side I noticed that the leaking cap has a dent in the middle of it. The dent looks like the type you would get if you placed about a 14mm socket in the middle of the cap and gave it a good rap. The cap on the other side is tight and dry and is undented.
