HELP!! leak at waterpump need fix.

[Talkwrench]

This couldn't happen at a worse time Im only two days away from having my car inspected for license.. Its a 360. I noticed that the power steering pump belt was loose.. [ I knew I shouldn't have touched it  ] I had to loosen off the adjustment nut and sure enough that one goes into a water jacket  and now I cant stop it leaking between the block and pump.. Tried tread tape and non hardening sealant I just cant tighten it up anymore. Any other tricks guys??    WTF did they make it like that..

Between the pump and the timing cover or the timing cover and the block?

I've read of similar problems when the bolt was to long... Add a thick washer & see.

So far good news. Last night I let the water drain out of the hole, plus a little extra I cleaned up the bolt and put sone tread tape on and some non hardening sealant . I put it back in and did it up as tight as I dare. This morning I went out and filled it up and nothing came out phew! when I got home still OK , I went around the block a few times and it seems ok, The only good thing that came of this is that I found a new belt that I had fitted , it is done up a little too tight though    not touchin' now  .. Let see if I passes licensing on Thursday
