I believe it to be quite common to epoxy in injector bungs and Kinsler etc. recomened it in many cases as cast aluminum manifolds are often quite thin walled and can be difficult to weld.

I bought MSD pockets, and they say "epoxy in" on the label.  It's a little scary, but there in no structural issue, and it's not like adding epoxy inside ports that can break loose.  Is it a waste of $s to have the pockets welded in?
