Yes, over a year. The heat from the pump dries the leak right out, so I get a pile of brown salty residue that accumulates below the pump right in that area. I get a damp cloth in there once in a while to get rid of it. When I pulled the pumps out for their annual service, I got right in there and scraped/wiped it clean.
