Default Tapped Oil pan?

My brother tapped a hole for oil return, lets just say that it is a little crooked. And now it leaks a little. My question is would it be ok to put honda bond on the inside of the oil pan to seal it.

Hondabond won't stop leaks. If you're going to remove your oil pan, have it rewelded.
