If it was leaking before, I would probably go with the JB Weld suggestion.
Otherwise, this is one of the few places where I would use Permatex #3. Or
I might be tempted to try some Loctite PST:

BTW, "Teflon" tape is not really a sealant at all. It is a lubricant. IMO
it has absolutely no use anywhere on a Triumph! If you want to lubricate
tapered threads (like where the heater lines join the engine), paste
"Teflon" works well.
