Photo shoot tomorrow mid day and i have a leaking timing chain cover...tried araldite and epoxy but warm/hot water dissolves that....what do I do?

Bottles of water is a last resort!

Why not just fix it right? Not Enough Time?

LOL. Its not about pussying out. Its 3 am here and its also Sunday tomorrow morning. If I had a cover lying around I'd use it now wouldn't I.

If someone has any genuine ideas then I'm ready to try that. Presumptous one liners will hardly fix the leak

Didn't realize you were in Australia until I just looked at your Profile!Sorry about that!! You could try some Stop Leak and then flush it back out after the Photoshoot when you get a chance to fix it Right,even some pepper in the radiator might work depending on how bad the leak is!!I am not a big fan of rigging stuff but if you are desperate enough and it sounds like you are in a bad spot try the Stop Leak!Good Luck!!
