is it common for these to leak? mine seems to have developed a leak along the seam round the middle :?  do the parts people sell these or is it a good idea to go for a stainless steel replacement?

Never had one leak myself but it's plastic welded so if it's going to leak anywhere it will be there.

Common as muck, so much so that I don't hoard them :roll: .

Piglets failed spectacularly yesterday. Seam along the side of the fuse box.
