It occurs to me that your problem is epoxy on the sides near the waterline as you say. I doupt that a hypodermic needle will help, rather grinding it off and re doing with little pieces.

I've built it in two half's and now have to see how they fit together and how the seating is etc. Possibly if all is as I hope it'll just bolt together with just a gasket of some material like inner...
