am a copy cat, the same thing happened to me this weekend... there was no 
plug in the hole.
called blair at the classic mg shop and got the parts this afternoon
two hours after i started betsy was once again humming
 now the reason for the post
why not use a center punch and upset the area in the casting about a 
1/16 of an inch around the edge ... not enough to distort it so it would
leak but enough to keep the sucker where it belongs.
i have seen this done on valve seats for small horsepower engines. mgs 
are small hp engines.
i have been thinking about ford model a's  the only thing that the td has
that is better ..... is a 2 relay regulator in the charging ckt. if you 
know the ford     compare the fuel pumps    hi  hi  
love it
