I had to modify an oil passage on my aluminum head. A small part of the head surface goes beyond the block. Maening I'll have to fill it with something To stop an oil leak. This is an oil drainback passage not a pressure passage.
I have to seal an area about 1/2 inch square by about .070's deep. This is on the head to block surface of the head. Don't want to weld it because the head is finished and don't want to resurface it.
. There isn't a lot of heat there its right next to the water jacket. What type of epoxy should I use? Or should I just use rtv sealant?
