Bob,
 
What kind of glue would I use? Epoxy? 
 
Thanks,
Peter

Hi,

TRF sells all the plugs for the TR6 block. The front and  side ones come in 
"sticks", you insert the stick (with GLUE) and cut it  off and with the 
front one you grind flush with the block and with the  side on you cut it 
standing proud of the block and then peen it over  (presumably so it seals 
better - I've never seen an explaination of  "why".) All the other ones are 
pipe thread (except the rear-most plug in  the main gallery which is a 
machine thread and the plug seals to the  block.

Perhaps your plug was not installed with some sort of  glue/sealant and/or 
peened over  properly?

regards,
rml
