Given this photo, how do I repair a drip? It is a quite old faucet. Do I
remove the round handle and packing nut directly underneath? Then what?
Do I replace the step, or is there a washer under there? Thanks for any
help. I am plumbing-challenged.

If your going to go to all the trouble to fix it , If your turning the
water off, just replace the whole thing . Then every part will be new. If
its dripping out of the hose connection you could just put a cap on it ( a
cap for a hose bib)
