Default engine leak stop

Posted in tech/performance too...but thought I might get more responses here. Anyone used any of those stop engine leak additives? Did it work at all? Pretty sure I have some leaking past the seals and have a leak coming from somewhere I can't seem to find wondering if this would help at all or not?

I have used Bars in the past for all leak, oil, antifreeze, power steering & trany. On different cars and yes it does work for small or slow leaks. Major leaks need to be repaired right. This stuff is a quick fit.
