4.6.5.2: If the controlling power desires to help the minor country against 
the major power(s) attacking it, it has to declare war on or already be at 
war with the other major power(s) before its forces can take part in any 
combat with that other major power. If it is not at war with at least one 
of the attacking major powers, the con-trolling major power may not 
garrison or control any cities of the minor country other than with that 
minor country's factors-the minor country must be run using only the minor 
country's own forces, although the controlling major power may pay for 
depots and/or supply costs for the minor country.

4.6.5.3: The controlling major power's corps are ignored in any combat 
involving that minor country's forces unless against a force which consists 
of factors of one or more countries with which it is at war (see 6.3.1 and 
7.3.8)

These are the two that make me wonder about this.  Paying supply costs is 
the only action noted as allowed without a declaration of war.  Leaders are 
not discussed specifically so it is not entirely clear if they are 
considered help to the minor nation..
