This is a very old unit. Its most likely an o ring that is gone on that unit since it is a mixer. However you didnt take the cover off and explain what you saw, which might give you a clue as to what is leaking. However my advice is to do the job properly from the word go, dont try do maintenance on something that old. Excavate on the wall around the mixer, remove it and replace it with a new one and patch up the hole. If it sounds like too much work. Get a registered plumber, who will gladly do it for you.

∙ 13y agoReplacing any kitchen faucet can be easy or extremely difficult depending on how old your old faucet is and what kind of K sink you have. If you look under your k sink and see chrome supply lines to your faucet then you are better off replacing those as well, and in many cases I usually replace the supply lines just to be sure they wont leak with stainless braided supply lines. Turn off the water stops and once you have the supply lines disconnected then you can (which sometimes its very hard) disconnect the faucet nuts which hold the faucet to the sink using a basin wrench. A lot of new faucets come with install instructions and I would just follow those instructions installing the new faucet and if you don't have the instructions then just download them from the faucet brands site. If you can not get the faucet holding nuts off from under the sink because of corroded its almost impossible then I would remove the K sink and cut the faucet nuts off with a hacksaw or sawzil with a fine tooth blade from underneath the sink flange or if your sink seems to be unmovable then cut the faucet off flush with the top of the sink.
