How big is the hole?

You could use a rubber boat repair thing or put a screw in it and epoxy it up.

MrCrowley stole my idea :P lol i have just used to rubber boat repair kits for small holes and if its a bigger one use a bolt/screw with some Epoxy around it and you should be fine small leaks arent a big problem in combustion gun i just put duct tape over a really small whole and that works fine so it all depends on the size of the hole.

Wtf was your brother thinking anyway lol.
