Nice idea there, looks like it should probably work fine. As I mentioned before all that bolt is doing is pulling the gasket tight, so it shouldn't be too hard to get it to seal.

The JB weld on mine is still holding up fine after about 60k miles. Same gasket, no leaks, JB weld still appears to be holding. I guess I'll find out if I ever have to replace the gasket but it's been fine so far.
