What or where the topic was that showed pictures and discussed how to repair the oil filter base on the older model 226 engines.  For the life of me I cannot find it, no matter what I search for....  I seem to remember someone filling the void behind the base with JB weld or something similar, then milling it flat.  I wanted to find out what that was, JB weld gets pretty hard, and all I have is a flat file, but I want it to bond to the aluminum well.
Still in use:

I use JB weld, fill it full. and file it down 
To mill it flat, I use a big belt sander, in the wood shop
works good

I did the same thing but I added a 1/8 inch piece of steel to it when I put the last coat of JB weld in when to fill the void. This held the piece of steel on the oil filter bracket. Then I added a gasket between and tighten it up to the block. The steel, I think gave it more strength. I don't have a problem with it leaking.

That would be me.
I filed the surface with a mill file to get a level surface, (most of them are warped) cleaned out the void and scratched up the pot metal in the void, made a 1/8" steel plate to match the surface, filled the void with JB weld and bolted it together (lightly) to cure. I then smoothed the edges and holes with small files, cut a new gasket, and it seals very well.
 
I have also used 1/16" aluminum rather than steel, and that worked pretty well also. You end up with a super gasket surface for not a lot of work or money, and you can't tell it's been modified.
