There are some "experts" on here that would tel you it can be repaired. And certainly, the leak could be repaired, but refilling the heater with the correct oil and in the correct amount, is a **** shoot at best. I look at it this way ... If it leaked once, it's going to leak again, in a different place. So, it's really not worth repairing. Get a new one.
