I have a 1981 MEMCO wood boiler that has smoke leaking out the bottom of the door by the handle. Does anyone have any advice on how to seal it and, if so, where can I get the materials? Thank you!
 
Rutland high temp silicone has been my best friend lately and you can find it at local stove shops or Home Depot. If you think it is applicable for your problem that's what I would try. Otherwise you could get some stove gasket if you have a large gap or to fill or use both together.
