Red RTV is high temperature, oil resistant, and will last. What makes you  
think hot oil will break this stuff down? Heck, it's used in engines all the  
time!

If you  must "drive" it in after applying the RTV it will work, but if it 
still a  slip fit after applying the RTV, hot oil will prevent this cure 
form  lasting.

Tinning with solder is more permanent. If the solder melts,  the engine 
is running way too hot!
