Internal pressure might help remaining caulk to maintain a seal but like a one way value, the defective area may leak from the exterior.
I remember having a tire leak that was slow but annoying. I covered the tire with soapy water numerous times but could not find the leak until it eventually got worse. Unfortunately with RVs it does not take a major leak to cause major damage. A very slow leak and only a small amount of water can create serious damage over time.
