Aquarium sealer should work. If you can do it from both the inside and outside than so much the better

This was a 3-years-dead thread you've replied to, but I'll provide some info since it's obviously an important topic to someone...

I ordered a new one plus a new washer motor from ToyotaPartsZone.com and installed it last night along with the engine/firewall-forward refresh and it looks brilliant.
Easy and inexpensive acquisition, replacement & installation.

The constant heat did that to my 05 ES330 also. I emptied the coolant, let the tank dry and applied bond-o to the cracked areas. I let it dry and filled her up! no problemz since. Hope this helps.

My 92 wouldn't hold a drop of Windshield washer fluid. Come to find out it was actually the grommet where the motor connects to the tank.

I pick up a PCV grommet for a GM vehicle from the Autozone Help! section (Part number 42062 ) for $1.99 and fixed my problem.

The tank itself was $122 on a Lexus dealers website and the motor was $32 to $35, but I'm not sure which one the grommet is included with so I decided to find my own "budget" fix.
Grommet looks to be my problem so I'll be trying this suggestion.

I know this thread is old, but there is a grommet available for the pump/tank connection. 90068-32002 thats the number. Lexus dealer lied to me and wanted me to pay $40. I called sewell lexus said that they had a grommet for it.
