No there is no way.
But next time to make sure it's sealed up nicely:
Drain fluids and make sure the inside of the case is DRY of oil. Then.. dab some paint thinner or a solution similar onto a piece of non shredding cloth and wipe off the surfaces. Wait a couple minutes, then apply the hondabond WITH putty knife. Don't put it on super thin, but don't put it on super thick.
Make sure to torque the bolts in an X pattern. 24 ft-lbs. It should come out the sides just a tiny bit.
