Noticed an oil leak developing shortly after my last service on my Dakar. Eventually tracked down the leak to be coming from a crack in the gasket of the oil reservoir. (See pics)

I see the reservoir consists of what looks like 2 parts, the reservoir and a flat back plate piece sealed by a gasket. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Should I be able to split the reservoir and redo the gasket, or must the whole thing be replaced?
