Your best bet is to go to the dealer or your local scrappy

I'd just go to the dealer and buy a new one. Might be slightly tricky to fit so if you aren't that great with spanners then get somebody competent to do it.
Any other fix is a temporary bodge.

Temporary bodge is just what was asked for.
Not as if that stuff is a bodge. It is very good stuff and that is what it was designed to do. When I was on patrol with the AA, we always carried it on board.

Add in the possibilty that when the bodge fails it could also take head gasket with it

Glad I could help you.
As you are no longer leaking water, you should be A-OK.
