Default Is there any way or product to seal a pinhole in an inaccessible 1/2" copper pipe?

I've presented this before and was guided to check out the baseboard
heating register. No leaks. So the pin hole I guess is below the
hardwood floorboards and most likely the sub-floor beneath that. There
is a finished sheet rock ceiling in the room below with no leak
showing anywhere.

I'm hoping there is something like motor-magic that can be fed into
the hot water heating system which would find its way to the leak.

Anyone have any good ideas??? Thanks


If your quest is really to mitigate the leak, here's what I'd do:

Option #1 - Re-route the plumbing with new materials.

Option #2 - Close off the problematic area.
