Slide roof bubbling

Unfortunately after seeing a thread regarding the slide gear mechanism leaking and causing the roof membrane to bubble up I decided to check mine.. Well sure enough after inspecting it this weekend I have the same issue! I cannot beleive they would not design some sort of motor/gear enclosure that would prevent this! Now I’m torn between having to take it back to the dealer (Tulsa,, OK) which is a little over 250 miles away or trying to fix the issue myself.

Can anyone tell me what roof material my 2018 Cougar Half Ton 25RES is made from? TPO or EDPM? I’ve seen the threads about pulling the inside roof vent panel to check but I really am not wanting to have to do that so I’m hoping someone already knows which material they used for this line.

Also, any suggestions on a good fix for the roof? Patch over the area and seal the patch? I plan on making some sort of aluminum tray and attaching to the motor/gear assy for a drip pan.
