It's funny you posted that link...

When I was underneath the truck I noticed an empty bolt hole on the rear of the head. I wondered how hard it would be to fab up a bracket to use that hole to fix the leak. I guess these cats beat me to it.

Not sure how he would last long term... but the thought did cross my mind.
