Diesel injector seat erosion 700

Hi all:

I have one injector seat, in the Cylinder Head, that has some erosion at the 6 oclock position. It looks like it's been this way for a while, as the threads were pretty coked up.

I cleaned the threads and seat up but it's still allowing a little combustion gas to escape past the threads. I used a new heat shield and torqued to the proper value.

Has anyone seen this condition? What's the best way to repair? I've heard of this 2000 degree epoxy. Do you think it would work here?

Thanks
