Looks like the right one.
If you're thinking tighter makes it stop leaking, that isn't how it works.
There's an inner seal in the speedo housing that seals the speedo gear.
You can replace the seal or the whole housing. Sometimes the speedo gear gets worn badly where the seal contacts it and you need to replace the gear too.
Look here for gears, seals and housings.
