FWIW, my Ragusa pan is tight as a drum and pan is dry as a bone.... If it's a new pan, I would contact the manufacturer. A properly cast pan, should not leak. Not with today's casting techniques.... If this were a 75 yer old flathead with porosity issues, Glyptal it up. Or even if it was a used Ragusa pan... But a new one? As you said, they are not inexpensive. I'd heard some recent Cadillacs had some porosity issues with their oilpans... GM replaced them under warranty, from what I remember reading.

Any coating that sufficiently seals it, will insulate it to some degree.

I understand Ragusa is a small company, but a badly cast pan should be thrown on the recycle pile, imo.
