What kind of apoxy have you tried? Try some jb weld, the real stuff not the kwik.

JB weld should hold, but how did you get a hole there in the first place?

Thats weird, did this just happen to you recently or did you buy it like that? Post pictures if you can. But again If its only leaking externally then drain it out, clean the surface area and use some JB weld. It holds up good on my b16 transmission, going on 3 years now. LOL
