oil leak
 
I have a 427 with a canton T-pan and oil is seeping out of the oil temperature bong, I've used plumbers tape and plumbers paste and it still leaks, has anyone else had this problem? Could it be the weld? any solutions? I called Canton and they suggested chasing the threads and new fittings.

You have to use the right sealant, specifically 3M 4291 oil safe thread sealant.
