I wouldn't mount it to NB with epoxy for a couple of reasons. Mainly because it would be semi-permanent. When I install a new water setup, I put it all in dry, getting tubing cut to length and twisted right directions. Then I remove it all while components are still conected, fill it outside of the case, do the twists/turns required to remove all the air, then let it run for a while. Then I put it back in the case, and let it run for a while making sure there are no leaks from installing, then I power on the computer. All of this would be very hard to do if the NB block is attached permanently. I would go with trying to get some kind of plate and threaded hooks like you mentioned earlier. I don't know what to tell you about your temps. Have you recently changed bios? It seems to me the reported temps have to be wrong. I would see if anybody else with same m/b is reporting trobles and if they found a fiix.
peace.
