I tried opening the cylinder reservoir by removing the lid at the top and in doing so the whole reservoir turned which caused a tiny bit of leakage at the bottom of the cylinder reservoir and hoped some of y’all would know how to fix it

Ouch.

If not leaking now, leave as is. There is a bit of give but not to move back and forth. If still leaking, try to move back to original position. Call DS for an extra bottle of coolant or if not a DS pc, make sure you refill with same coolant as in the system already. You generally cannot mix different coolants. If unknown. use distilled water  to refill.

The reservoir top used to have screw-in caps and needed a 6mm hex wrench to remove. Don't know if still the same. Good luck.

next time take a hair dryer and heat up the screw top a bit to loosen it up.  heat expansion can get them tight/stuck.
