I guess you're not talking about your derby cover cause a gasket and silicone should do the trick. As glebo said, did you change out parts, torque something on unevenly, add a new part that's machined wrong?

Did you torque all the screws in the proper order? You need to tighten them in the sequence specified in the manual. If so, check the primary cover for warpage. Place it on a flat surface like a saw table and make sure it is flat.
