Science of Speed Coolant Bottle leak

Several years ago, my factory expansion coolant bottle started leaking. I learned this was a not so common problem as the plastic bottle does not hold up well over time.

As a result I purchased the Science of Speed:

Though my model was a bit different from the one displayed in the link in terms of cosmetics. I recently detected the odor of coolant from my car. I brought her to the tech to have a SoS clutch and a brake set installed. I asked for a pressure test to discover the location of the leak.

It turns out the leak was(is) coming from the SoS tank. The tech said the leak is just under the tank. Science of Speed's warranty for this part has already run out.

My question is: Has anyone else had this issue with the SoS coolant tank? Also, and more importantly, what other options of coolant tanks to I have other than stock or SoS would you guys recommend?

Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Can you find a local welder to patch it up? Shouldn't be a big job.
