    Copper gasket maker would do the trick nicely IMO.

    When I installed my EGT probe, I put a very small amount of RTV silicone on because it was all I had. However it is not rated anywhere near the temperatures that will be reached at that point. That was a few years ago and it is still sealed OK for me at least.

    Ian from Thermoguard (think he's still got a user name on here) sells a blanking plate for the 300Tdi with a hole already drilled and tapped for an EGT probe.
    It comes with a new gasket.
