Re: oil tube
I would not use JB weld. Use your favorite sealer instead. You may need to remove the tube at a later date.

Re: oil tube
That tube is a press fit. If it feels loose at all, you might try gently tapping on the end with a block of wood.

Re: oil tube
Take the tube out, clean it and the hole apply Indian head gasket shellac, let it get tacky and drive the tube back in using a block of wood.

Re: oil tube
Another thing to check.
If you have enough blow-by, oily vapor will exit the breather cap/dipstick assembly. This is directed back towards the block and can collect on the tube - gravity then causes it to appear to leak at the six o'clock position where the tube enters the block.
