Default Lighting Header repairs?

Does anyone have any experience with getting these headers repaired? I had one side with a small seeping leak in #8..I can't seem to find any information on who to contact,all I can find is vendor's who sell them..Also any ideas to the cost of repairs?? Thanks

Is it leaking inside, or on the outside? Outside should be a simple fix. Leaking on the inside may be difficult, depending on where the leak is and whether the metal adjacent to it is thin and weak from corrosion. Most Lightnings are stainless inners and mild steel outers. Were they used in salt or brackish?
