The 72059 is the correct P/N. It is a fibrous gasket and will seep

(sometimes). A trick used is to apply a small amount of locktite 515 or

more commonly known as 'grape jelly'on both sides of the gasket before

installing the fill tube, and then grip the tube with both hands and

rotate to tighten only until the fill tube quits rotating. If a wrench

is used, be extremely careful not to apply too much force as the tube

has been known to crack (don't ask how I know)
