Default Leaky SV cure

I haven't ran my boat yet, but it takes on a bit of water (1tsp in 5 minutes) in the tub. It's coming in from the prop shaft tube or strut mount bolt holes. Can't really tell because of the wood transom stiffener. Has anyone else had this happen? Should I pull the flex cable and strut to reseal? I tried some hot glue on from the inside around the shaft tube, but there's really no way to get at the point of entry due to the wodd in the transom as the leak is behind it.
