Whether this will work or not to keep combustion gas from escaping depends on whether the glow plug seat is intact and if sufficient, even pressure can be transferred to the glow plug seat.

The 1/4-20 N.C. set screw pushes on a rubber plug which seals the coolant breach. Coolant pressure is determined by your expansion tank cap, which should be around 17 psi max.
