Dont remove the bolt ! ... .. thats all the advise I can give you. If you removing you risk having to do much more work.

Do a search and you will find solutions to this. I cant search right now.

If tightening doesn't work, try some Auto-Rx:

It works great on these type of leaks (cleans and restores elasticity to the seals). You will be a happy camper!

Take a look at this thread to understand what that bolt is for and why it might be leaking. (note: the thread starts with some posts on the TCT, but just keep reading).
