That sealant will not work on a cracked evaporator -- the original had copper tubes feeding it and an aluminum body crimped together. The differential expansion/contraction causes the aluminum to fatigue and crack all over the place.
I've replaced two, and need to do a third if I want to keep the "new" 300D going (questionable at 400k miles), so I had a failure rate of three out of 5. It's a doable job, but plan on a long weekend and lots of swearing. Be very careful with the floor vent linkage, it's fragile and you have to fab up something to replace it if it breaks or you have not defrost....
