Default oil leak, B/W O/D

Had a gentleman reassemble my overdrive, (BW). There is a small leak between the Adaptor plates at the front and back. Small drop will form after sitting a day or two. I suspect it will leak more while in operation and probably is no problem if I add a squirt every so often, but I wonder if there is a stop leak like product that works where there is a metal to metal finish and no gaskets used? I doubt he used any form of sealant during reassembly. Not a big deal yet, but I sure don't want to have to pull the dang thing out again. I'm getting too old to do this alone. Took me about a week to get it a installed and adjusted, now I want a magical cure for the minor leak before it gets worse.
