Default skip shift solenoid

My skip shift solenoid is leaking oil. I'm using the eliminator so it does not work, so why do I need to replace it? It's almost $200!! Why can't it just be removed and plugged? I would like to use the money for other items. Any help out there?

Looks like maybe just an O ring.
