Theflon tape is the one used in plumbing.
JB is more reliable. Just a bit trickier.
I would not tap. Tap will exert pressure and if it is small old backelite puece, it might crack, even if you are retapping epoxy inside.

I would try fill it with putting a screw inside while it is still soft.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
