Maybe open it up and dry it out good, then try what I did. Get the 5200 fast cure, since the regular takes a week to cure. It’s awesome stuff, and stays flexible but bonds like crazy. I put it on about 1/8 inch thick and about an inch up the cable and down the camera. I’d consider putting it over the seams of the housing also.
I’d suggest writing Marcum, if you haven’t. An LX-9 isn’t cheap and if they didn’t even meet you half way I’d be pretty disappointed. They charge a small fortune for the camera but knowing the camera is $15 retail, and the housing and cable can’t be that much for them, it’s not like it’s gonna hurt their profits.
Mention your an active member on a large Internet forum and you’ll likely share your disappointment if they don’t help. Maybe, lol. Maybe add that if they try to dismiss you.
