ES Composite Pipe Repair

[Chuck Czarnik]

I have one of these pipes with a damaged inlet.  I found an aluminum
tube that fit inside the inlet almost perfectly and tried to JB weld it
in and clamp from the outside.  That lasted about 15-20 flights, and now
it leaks like crazy.  Is there any kind of epoxy or other sealant (e.g.
high temp silicone) that will hold up better to the heat?  Pipe is used
with a YS 140, so it gets pretty hot.  I hate to let this pipe go just
yet.  Any help appreciated!  Chuck
