Grease the base the stud base under the nut thoroughly before putting the nut on. Use something chemical resistant such as Dupont Krytox. Put enough on that it forms a seal of its own between the stud and the cover.
Edit: inspect your covers for tiny cracks around the holes. They do crack... if necessary replace.
