Unhappy Rear cylinder base o-ring

I have a 2009 FLHTC with a 106 motor.it is S&S cylinders and pistons and port and polished heads.
lately it awards oil is weeping around the rear cylinder base. It has about 2-3 thousand on the engine build.
Has anyone seen a twin cam based engine with the o-ring cylinder base gasket leak?
I know how to fix it just wonder if anyone has seen this before.

Any fix to this issue? While making my own cam chain locking tool out of abs and Dremel, I damaged cylinder base slightly from cylinder smacking base where o ring goes block. I was thinking about using threebond?
