Pretty much.  Once it's had a little time you idle the engine for a
while to bake it.  It sets up rock hard.

I was thinking more like .050-.075 soft iron wire.  I used to have a
roll of wire used for attaching cyclone fencing to posts that was
very nice, like thin coat hanger stock but softer.  Closest I've come
lately is somewhat thinner brass wire from Home Depot.  You use it
when patching to bridge gaps that the cement would blow out of by
itself.  If a gasket's blown out the side, for example, you can stuff
some cement in sideways and then wrap some wire around the
edge.  It's not a permanent fix but it can last surprisingly well,
many months sometimes.  Little leaks can mess up your oxygen sensor
feedback, so you have to either fix them immediately or disconnect
the sensor until they're fixed.

Yrs,
