This spigot leaks from the place where the handle attaches. Would I be lucky enough to be able to just need to replace the handle? Or would I need to also replace that brass piece it's connected to? All I can tell you about the faucet itself is that it's an anti-siphon one.
Replace just the knob of this outside spigot to fix this leak

If you're lucky, with a frost proof fixture like this, you may be able to slightly tighten the nut that's holding in the packing or gasket behind the handle. You'll need to have two wrenches for this, one to hold the faucet in place, and a second to tighten the nut.
If this nut doesn't want to turn (don't force it, else you may damage it and then need to replace the entire faucet), then you'll need to replace the packing or gasket around the valve stem. It's a cheap repair, but requires the water is off to the fixture and that you are gentle to avoid damaging the soft metal.
