Maybe. Not sure where your leak is or what it looks like. Use GM sealing
tablets.

Not a good idea. Repair it correctly or replace it. Replacements are dirt
cheap.

The sealant pellets that GM uses as original equipment may help, these can
stop small leaks without being likely to clog anything else up. The more
aggressive "stop-leak" products may stop larger leaks but are also more
likely to clog parts of the system.
