CM AntiFreeze Leak
I have an '89 L98 Vette 58k stock and noticed a leak at one bolt. Should I replace the whole gasket or just address the bolt in question?

CM Leaky Faucet
The bolt is located on the fire wall drivers side by the wiper motor. There is no room for a wrench. It's a small leak that pools on top of the engine.
