How do you know that the powder is going into the touch hole and not dribbling out of the seam that's under the cover?
If the powder were going into the touch hole then maybe a threaded vent should be installed to prevent that from happening.
However if it's leaking out of the seam, then beeswax can be used on the lip of the pan to create a seal.
Another option would be to determine which carry positions are best to hold the gun at in order to prevent the pan from emptying and to check it often.
For instance, if the gun is held with very little cant (side to side angle variation) so the powder in the pan remains fairly level, then the powder shouldn't be leaving the pan unless there's excessive leakage in or out from carrying the gun at a bad angle.
