Regarding the pitted waterpump surface...Using JB is fairly common to make
sure this area will seal correctly. I and many other have done it
professionally for years with no issues. Smooth on with a very flat blade
( I use a razor blade) and hit it with a flat file after its dry to be sure
the area is truly flat.
I use W7DTC  plugs (the tripple electrode style)...never liked platinums
much...but the wr7dp should work...
