got new engine running..but theres a problem

Engine runs fine..no start up problems....I had a bung welded(brazed) to the sump of the oil pan for a oil temp gauge. Theres a pin hole in the weld and when the oil gets up to temp it leaks..Pulling the pan is not an easy task. Im thinking cleaning it..grinding it..and epoxy or some other liquid metal.. What has worked best..JB weld?

I have used this stuff on an oil pan in the past on an 84 K car. No problems at all. Just make sure you clean it REAL good first.
I used brake cleaner on my pan first. The stuff never leaked and lasted a good 50,000 miles untill the POS went to the junk yard in the sky.

I know of a K car that has a cracked block, filled with JB weld, she's still on the road!
