I have an ´87 XJ 900 and had excatly the same problem. I tried ´Petseal´ liquid resin which was only partially successful. The leaks reappeared a few weeks later and the resin eventauuly broke away from the inside!
I finally cured the leak using Plastic Padding´s ´Chemical Metal´ two-part epoxy. It needs to be fairly thick but after sanding and painting it´s OK on my work-a-day transport.
