Welding May heat the internal components too much and ruin them

Pics would help. TIG welding isn’t cheap. Not sure how much the fuel pump was but the repair very well could cost more

I think JB Weld makes an epoxy specifically for aluminum........I've seen JB Weld successfully fix stuff that it had no business fixing...

If it broke through the hole can you put a large flat washer on it and use as is? Or leave that one out if the others will hold it? Like Deadeye said , gotta be careful with heat around that thing .

Welding cast aluminum is about 50/50 at best. With it being a stress point, I'd guess it's a 10% chance of it staying "fixed."

I'm a welder and I'm learning so much. Keep it coming. That seems to be a common occurrence on here and pretty much everywhere. It amazes me when folks give horribly wrong advice on something that I know a lot about. Usually that expert advice is coming from someone with little or no experience in that field. It also scares the hell out of me because there’s a lot of things that I don’t know anything about and have to take other people’s advice.

Precision welding isn’t in my skill set, so I’m no help to the OP.
I just have sense enough to know it and not give him bad advice.
However, if this happened to me, I know a fella that could fix it.
