This makes me very happy.

I'll disassemble the faucet saturday AM. �If I spend more than an hour
screwing with it, I'll buy a new one.

you may find it only leaks when hot water is dumped in the tank by say
a washing machine. sure hope it just the faucet but keep a eye on it,
mine concrete tank leaked off and on intermittently for a long time,
before it became obvious the exit pipe was leaking
