As far as I know, the sleeve itself is. The following link will provide some info:

There's at least one (perhps two, sorry I don't remember) inside the sleeve itself which seals the driven gear. If that seal is worn or cut, you'll have a leak.

If the seals are good, it should't leak much, if at all. The question is why would you want to run the car without the cable attached?

thanks 4 the info. i was just trying to figure out, if the sleeve was bad or if the cable had a seal where it screws on, which it doesnt. i will just buy a new sleeve and that should fix my problem. thanks
