I've seen folks use everything from Carnation milk to black pepper and every 
kind of commercial block sealer made.  They all work some of the time.  Some 
might work all of the time.  They better have a double money back guarantee 
to get me to pay $60 for that Blue Devil brand.

You used to be able to get some block sealer from Ford dealers that was 
pretty neat.  It had a flourescent die marker in it.  It would seal the leak 
and then when you pulled the engine down you could shine a black light on it 
and see where the leak was.  I don't know if they still have it or not.
