I think my oil delivery base bolt is either stripped or the threads in the case are stripped. I'm looking for a way to stop the leaking coming from the bolt. I have thought about using JB weld or Soldering it like you would plumbing, but I have no idea if either of these is a good way to go about it. Any ideas? Thanks.
 
Well if the case is cracked this man makes oversized oil feed couplings. I have dealt with him before and had no problems.
Billroy Engineering Pty Ltd also make other good stuff for XS's

Are there any options that don't involve ordering from Australia? I'm pretty much on the opposite side of the world.
 
Have you tried loosening the nut that holds the line and tightening the fitting?
One of the over size fittings or an thread insert would be the best options.
