The "O" rings at the bottom of the sleeves are more commonly the problem. They need to be lubed with dish soap on the way in. some are not, and get nicked. Loose at the top is also a problem. They should be so snug that they just don't move, not a driven fit. If the maker of the sleeves is unknown, and not able to be held accountable, Or if the block was bored for the oversized sleeves, then fixing it may be the only recourse. I would put a thin film of petroleum jelly on the sleeve rim, coating it well on under surface, and sides, Then use JB weld in the groove such that it smashes out and up creating a seal at the top that will hold the sleeve in place. Both ends need to be sealed to prevent leakage. Normally the top is sealed by the sleeve rim, but on that one cylinder, it may be loose enough to become leaky. These are what I would do JimN
