Question

Answer
Hi Mike,

      I would be carefull about putting sealer inside with the antifreeze because sometimes it can cause more problems that it fixes. Like plugging the heater core or the radiator so they don't allow coolant to flow.

      You are kind of vague as to what half seal got warped. Maybe there is a better alternative than the sealer. However if you want to try it "steel seal" might have been the stuff you saw.

     Let me know if I can be anymore help. Bill
