Default Re: welding a block

Welding should be a last resort. Why weld a low pressure area when it can be "repaired" with epoxy (s). It's not a structural issue so there are lots of options. Best might be to drill and tap for pipe threads. Locktight in a tapered cast iron plug and grind smooth. One coat of POR 15 and "no hole"!
