COEFFICIENT OF WATER/OIL
DISTRIBUTION:
just fyi

this is the material saftey data sheet, not a technical datasheet on material properties. that boiling point only applies to the material before it is mixed together. once it is cured it will not boil, it will flame out, and the flame out point has nothing to do with the operating temp range of the adhesive before failure. that company does not specify a hot tensile lap shear stength. that is the specification that will most directly apply to this application. the product i mentioned has over 3000psi shear strength in that parameter. not to mention it is designed to survive thermal stress cycles as would be seen in a cooling system. before i said anything about the adhesive that the OP mentioned i researched it. fusor does not specify specific cured strength properties of that material. therefore i cant say if it would work or not, because they dont give enough information to make an educated decision.
