when you put the rocker studs in be sure the holes are oil free, apply a bit of red locktite to seal the threads and you are fine. No need to fill the hole.

Make sure that you use Loc-Tite or some kind of thread sealant, because it will suck oil through each of those holes if you don't use anything at all.
