I would guess they will tell you to use 3m 5200, squirt some into each hole and let it fully cure, or mix up some resin to a peanut butter texture using cabosil and some chopped mat fibers... That would be my guess, without being able to see it, pics would also help to get a definitive answer...

Marine Tex is the way to go in my opinion. It is a two part epoxy and cures with the strength of steel.
