what's that black mb sealer

[jsmith]

i 've seen references to this for sealing up the timing chain cover. is it some permatex like product and can i get it from the dealer? i'm having my head gasket and timing chain cover done on my 93 300e-2.8 at my local indy and will ask him to use the stuff.

BTW, i've seen references to this job being done as a "courtesy service" under 100k. i have 53k right now, can anyone up here in ny-nj verify this?

I think your talking about DIRKO and it is sold here in Fastlane. See below the diffrent types of sealents sold in Fastlane and you can type the part number in part search to bring them up. Hope this helps!
