There is a cap that you can pry off that exposes a little plastic nut, but that won't solve your problem. Don't worry it won't come completely off because there's a screw holding it down. I haven't gotten into mine yet but it looks like the whole thing has to come off and new sticky-stuff (butyl) needs to be applied down. Below is a link to what it's called and the parts around it.

Thanks, now I know what it's called. It's a bit over $100 at Pelican so I may just replace it.
Do guys mean butyl caulk?
