JB Weld will work.  There is a brand that I cannot remember which comes solid 
in a tube.  You cut off a piece and knead it together as the two parts are 
molded together.  We have used Devcon as well.  When we repair castings we just 
use any steel filled expoxy that we can find and they all work about the same. 
 The Devcon does spread a litle more easily, but which ever you use will hae 
to be ground down and smoothed in once it sets up.
