is it ok to use jbweld,quicksteel on the inside of oil pan?

since it was leaking like a motha and i need a oil drain for my 6 port turbo project it was the way i went. anyways im gonna use either on this since i dont have acess to a welder at the time. so can i use it on the inside as well because of the heat and any other reasons? i dont want this sucker to leak and have to rip it apart again.

jbweld wont stick unless you can somehow get it increddddddibly clean

this is going to sound really stupid but i swear it works

on my jeeps oil pan i have a about 2x2 hole i got when my engine mounts broke and my engine literally fell onto my axle

but i used a fiberglass patch on it i double layed it and it has held for several months now even with me using it for heavy offroading

Well if your planning on putting it on the INSIDE of your oilpan I assume your going to take the pan off right? If its off, just take it and have it welded. It shouldnt cost more than $15-$20 to have it welded up at a machine shop or something. Dont mess with JB weld on an interior fix like that.

Um, you have your oilpan sitting in your room? Just a guess, but does your house have wheels on it? lol J/K
