Do something. That leak won't get better. You can remove it and hammer it flat and reseal it to get by until a new cover arrives.

Without pulling it off no resealing really. If you are going to pull it might as well get a better diff cover. Seen these stock ones punch holes with not much effort.

The riddler diff covers are bare metal so you can customize them any way you want. They are also pretty cheap!

I run then and painted mine in the garage. Easy to do and I've hit them hard on the lip with no leaks. You'll like these and save a few bucks for the next mod.

Riddler is the way to go. These things are beefy as hell!

Nice price and they are slim...won't get in the way of future mods.
