Subject:Coolant Leak

While troubleshooting the oil pressure light problem on my 1985 1.9L, I
found a coolant seep.  It seems to be coming from a small, 2" X 1" diamond
shaped cover plate at the front of the driver's side of the engine, just in
front of the spark plug .  It's held on by two allen head bolts.  Could
this just be a matter of taking off the plate and sealing it with Permatex
or will removing that plate open a Pandora's box of problems?
