Why not try engine paint? It will be designed for high(ish) temperatures.

I spent a couple of hours in there getting loads of slurpy mud and other
rubbish out of the holes to get them perfectly clean.

Then I filled them up with Waxoyl. It hardens to a nice waxy texture
which could be scraped out if needed but which prevents all the crud
filling them up again.

Have had no problems with it, other than the initial smell(which fades)
and it does go very watery the first few times, if you over fill, it
trickles onto the pulley and sprays around the engine!
