On the last TR engine rebuild I used JB Weld two part epoxy to seal up the
rear camshaft plug. Well after about 8 years it developed a leak. Eventually
the leak worsened as the engine got hot.

 

Now that I have the engine out I can see that the epoxy had some cracks, and
was able to  easily chip it  out using a screwdriver.

 

So, what should I use to seal this plug up once and for all?
