Leaking trim pump motor

i have discovered that my port trim pump has a slight leak.
it does not look like lines, the bottom of the fluid reservoir is wet.
after looking at photos, looks like there is a screw in center of reservoir? j1171 pump trs drive
maybe this is leaking??
will address this today.....any ideas??
thanks............

Don’t you wish all problems could be fixed that easy.

pretty common. I have replaced a dozen or so of them. they split out at the bottom screw lots of times or get old and warp so they dont keep pressure on the seals.
