I have a small dent in my longtube headers and was wondering how to fix it?

Do I have to get the dent drilled then poped out or welded?

Or could I put some high heat Copper RTV sealent in it then paint over it, or something similar?

I wouldn't worry about it, un less it's really pinching up the tube.
