There is a hole in the bottom of the oil sump in my 1996 Hyundai lantra. It looks like its developed from rust. Is there anything I can do to seal it without having to get a new sump?

Just slightly off centre in the bottom of the sump, the square part closest to the floor

Well there are plenty osf different sealers out there that could probably seal it but when it comes to oil, I would have it replaced. If a leak develops unknowingly it could cause alot of internal damage to your motor
