Default 400 oil leak

At a guess I'd say that Loctite 18034 would be the most efficient
means of sealing push rod tubes in a 2 Litre head. However and
depending on how loose they are, it may be just as satisfactory to
use a high temperature Silicone adhesive. My problem is that the RS
catalogue lists vast numbers of different ones without it being
clear exactly what the difference is.

In my experience it they are steed with a propensity for loosening
their nuts and bolts and leaking oil!
