Just put a LoneStar block off plate on my brake caliber and its leaking just up from the lower screw. What should i do? Put a o-ring on it? Thanks for any advice.

The blockoff cover is nothing more then a dust cover it is not ment to be a seal you need to replace the seals where the shaft for the parking brake goes thru the caliper

You have to take the caliper apart to get to that o-ring. you might as well replace the 2 other seals while you're in there. Total cost for all 3 is about $10 from the stealership.
