Leaking Bolt/Water Jacket

The Bolt for the pivot on the adjustment bar for the alternator looks like it goes into the water jacket on the block of my small block 67 Barracuda has been leaking. Putting the question out there as to the best product to use on the threads to seal it up when i reinstall it? Thanks Ken

Yes, that bolt goes into a water jacket. To get a good seal you may have to drain the coolant to below the bolt hole and blow the hole out with compressed air. Gasket sealer works as does thread sealing compound.
