Devcon, 2 ton, 30 minute epoxy. Mix it up, place in the hole, screw the screw eye in place. If some spills over, just even it out around the screw eye as it will help to hold it in place.

Inject some glue into the hole with the nozzle freak then put the eye in, I've not ever had one leak in all the screw eye plugs I have done. Dry in 24 hours and I think stronger than epoxy. I've seen epoxy not bond and I've not once seen that with the polyurethanes. Use what you think will work for you I guess.
