Default ASAno leaks

Hello

My ASAno pipe leaks a little bit from the riveted joints. The pipe is the 'older' type 630mm 4C with a flex header. The leak started to appear after 150 flights and I have heard it is normal with these pipes. However this is the only thing that oils my belly pan so I'd like to get rid of it. What have you done to seal the rivets for good?

Maybe I'll clean the pipe by flushing it several times with pure methanol and apply some hot epoxy around the rivet heads..
