Subject: [Leica] Light Leak in m6?

Using Ilford Delta 400 B and W,  I am getting black streak along what would be
the bottom edge of the film (a sit sits in the camera) the black irregularly
sometimes extends into the image area. Don Goldberg stated that the black
sealer on the bottom of the hinged back is for cushioning and not a light trap
,but the light (if it is a light leak) might be coming in through where the
rewind lever fits on the camera front. Any observations?   Joe Zarick, Cinn
