Damaged barrel surface

[Guest]

Hi I’m going through bits trying to get some good 750 bits to get a motor back together this one has good cylinders and fins but base has been butchered and has a few divots and deep marks in it any good gasket sealers that will stop it from leaking or anyone know best option to sort it out ,cheers Todd

My 850 was badly gouged on the lower surface. I sprayed the base gasket with high build high temperature Aluminium paint in 2015 and it was fine until I sold it last month.
Any pictures, deep is a relative term?

Fill the divots with epoxy (JB Weld, Abrosteel, etc) rub down, use two light coats of Hylomar spray.
That's what I do.
