forget the Play-doh, use ReproRubber.
it's a 2 part mix like epoxy, sets up to a semi-firm rubber, pulls right off (no parting agent needed), doesn't leave a residue, and maintains it's shape.
just mix up a small ball, stick it on an impeller blade, install the pump and wait 15 minutes. remove the pump, remove the rubber, cut it half and measure the gap with a digital caliper. we use this for setting gaps on 737 engine thrust reversers, it would be perfect for this.
