For what it's worth, I'd use something a little heavier than tin plate, 2 - 3mm steel will never blow through and will resist temperature change far better than a bean can.

You need cobalt bits not standard ones. Also you can sharpen blunt bits with a grinder with a bit of practice.

Just be careful as you don't want it squishing out into the inlet and going through the engine and turbo.

I used standard gaskets to seal mine.
