Sound deadening

My earlier reply to this post seems to have vanished into the ether.

The white(ish) 'gloop' was white bitumen (not asphalt as I said earlier).
This was stored in a corner of the factory site in 1 foot square blocks and
used for timing chain covers. If you know someone who uses this stuff and
want to restore to 'original' - white bitumen is the stuff.
