If I read the hash instructions towards the bottom of the file, you should
be good to fix typos or add $FreeBSD$ in a comment line, the only lines
that are hashed are the data and time stamps. Syslog shows that during the
last week the hash was considered OK on the file in 10.3-p7 with
$FreeBSD: releng/10.3/etc/ntp/leap-seconds 295461 2016-02-10 07:16:17Z cy $ .

Please check the hash instructions, I don't think it's needed to remove that.
