That would work, but there is always the chance of messing up the block. The weld on a nut method works so well and is fairly easy, IMO it would be difficult to try a different approach. The heat from the welding seems to be a major factor in the success rate. But if all else fails, then drilling might be the way to go, we used the magnetic based drills a lot when I worked in tooling and the jig shop.
