I have heard (and know of) of problems with epoxy when used on a mating surface with a gasket in between. The pressure from the gasket (when the to mating sufaces were tighten up) was strong enough to break the epoxy loose. This happen to a good friend of ours. He now weld the entrances up and then epoxy up behind the weld so there is pressure being put on the epoxy.
