What is the difference between seepage and leakage? Does this two nouns and their verbs mean the same? As far as I know, both mean a liquid unexpectedly flowing out of something (pipe, tube, hose, etc.) Thanks for the help! :)

Usually, to seep is to go slowly through a porous material. (example - Blood seeped through the bandage.) Usually, to leak is to go through a hole or a crack. (example - Water leaked from the cracked pipe.) New Oxford American Dictionary seep | sip | verb flow or leak slowly through porous material or small holes leak | lik | verb 1 accidentally lose or admit contents, especially liquid or gas, through a hole or crack
