Perhaps some 30 or 45 minute epoxy thinned with denatured alcohol.

Mix the epoxy, then thin it till it is thin enough to brush into the area around the
thruster. Rotate the thurster assembly a few times as you do this.
The thinned epoxy should wick its way around and into the contact area
between the thruster tube an hull.
