Thanks for the suggestions on the sealant. My Orion came with the shaft pre-installed, but I could easily see that o-ring on one side had two obvious breaks in it, and replaced it. Not super easy, as the o-ring kept wanting to pooch out as the shaft was going back in. After repositioning the idler shaft, I loaded both ends of it with Permatex 2B and haven't seen any leaks from there. Just the nosecone.
