Back cam shaft cap oil leak
#1
Hello! so after I did some work on my Tracker which required me to take off the cam shaft, it is now all back together and running but it is leaking oil from the camshaft cap all the way in the back (number 6??? i think it is)

I followed the RTV (Permatex oil proof/sensor safe) step on this website and on the FSM.

My guess is I didn't put enough or tighten it too much before the RTV set down and squeezed it all out. Anyway...now I have to fix this. Do I have to take out the whole camshaft again? or can I just take out this cam shaft cap and reset it down with new RTV?
1996 Geo Tracker, CAMI, 16 valve, 5sp, 4x4, soft top, 2 door, no a/c
