I'd never heard of this but apparently its a thing.
They used to paint the engines with GLYPTAL which was an elastic oil resistant paint used to fill pores in the castings , stoping debris build up and helping the oil return to sump faster... in theory , theres a good thread on the MG forum...

( I also have an MGB but I've begun tinkering with pre-war now so all is not lost )
