Either The Right Stuff,
Or what I sue - Toyota black silicone type sealant.

Subject: Hylomar or other gasket sealant

I'm in the process of fixing a couple of coolant leaks and wanted to use
Hylomar on the gasket for a coolant pipe coming off the crankcase.
Problem is that I can't find it anywhere.
Can anyone recommend either
1.  a retail outlet in the NJ area that is known to stock Hylomar
products (e.g., "super blue")
2.  a type of retail outlet that is likely to have it (FLAPS don't;
maybe speed shop?)
3.  a reasonable alternative product that can be used to fill small
rough spots in this gasket application
Thanks.
