Hey guys, I have a leak coming from a half moon shaped oil plug on the passenger side of the cylinder head, that flat part of the plug is flush with the valve cover. My plug is new when i rebuilt my motor but seem to leak when Im autocrossing, is there another way to seal this up?

the picture below is not of my motor, I found this picture while searching on this topic, in this picture the plug is grey.
Thanks for the help

RTV needs to be used. I used copper, but black/red may work also.
 
A very fine, thin layer of RTV will suffice. Do not use red, for the love of God.

Also, as a side note - I really want that CAS.
 
I think the problem is being caused by the hello kitty
Never mind that's not your motor...
