I can't remember what make it is, but the variable fan controller on my MGB has something similar. It has a curved bit of rubber that sits
between the coolant hose and the casing and has a tiny little channel in it for the wire to go through. It's never leaked and came as part of
the kit for it.

had another look at it tonight took the coolant pipe off and it looked fine as if it would have sealed, but there is just the smallest of lines where
its not quite filled.
What we did was use a combination of silicone and a peice of rubber hose which we cut and used the wire to fill the gap we had cut and then siliconed
that . It was a very awkward and bodge kind of job and it failed because of that.
It didnt leaked for a couple of days and was fine but then it did.
I dont want to do it again without being convinced its gonna work as its such a job draining the coolant each time.
Anyway managed to just about get my oil lines sorted didnt work out too bad just need to swap 1 fitting and were there.
