Probably happened when I torqued screw on top to let air out.I'll try to put some seal all on top but I doubt it'll fix it.You can see coolant that was spraying on the hose,
Thanx,

P.S.Question is can this little crack to the left of screw be fixed?

Just JB weld it. I doubt you'll even leak the crack is too tiny, just let it sit for a couple days and dry.
