I most commonly see engines with Yamabond or Hondabond sealing them. Again products designed to properly seal an internal combustion engine coming in contact with oil, fuel, coolant, etc.
I will be looking to see your results. I hope they are positive.
I worry that the tape rolled will have too much thickness and distort the machined tolerances and alignment.

Can you recommend any of the Permatex gasket makers?
