I believe it was only egg whites that should be uses. And, yes, back in the 60's I do remember adding pepper to plug a small leak. I also remember pinching off the tubes of a leak as a temporary fix.
For the heater, I'll bet the core is too far gone to salvage.
Should not be too bad to replace. I'd bet you can do it yourself!
