Scratched Tranny Mating Surfaces...
Dear Civic Forum,
Just silly me of no precaution doing it, got hit scratched with a screw so quickly when I am opening the shifter **** mating surfaces from my 2001 EL Acura.
Do I need to worry about this?
Can I use a toothpick of Red RTV to fill the gap forever?or any drawback in the future if use JB weld or Permatex cold weld now?
Also Is there any aluminum body filler available aside from above weld material mentioned?
please just need advice on this.Would be awesome!
Thank you in advice!!!

That area gets sealed with hondabond or permatex grey, and it's at the top of the trans anyways so it should be fine
