Ron,
I believe this was a suggestion from John Twist. As I recall, the exact
quote is: "all B series heads weep between (cylinders) 2 and 3; some
actually piss." This wire trick was his suggested fix: two or three thin
coppre wire strands were twisted together and embeded in silicone
sealent(?!). Seems a bit dodgy to me, but the man knows far more than I do
about things MG! Has anyone actually tried this?
I searched the University Motors website, but came up dry :-)

73 B w/ non weeping head (so far).
