I can't speak to the heat in a TR6... However I can talk about the heat in a
TR4 with headers running right next to the intake manifold... I didn't use
hammerite but plain old ordinary black Krylon, sprayed on in 1987. so far
there has been no blistering or cracking... the manifold only shows the
scuffs and scratches of repeated removals that I needed to finally solve my
starter problems.

That's not a leak... My car's just marking its territory...
