Mine looks the same way, get an assortment of plastic desk grommet plugs and paint them to match.

Fritzies fabrication on youtube has a good method for filling holes I now use. The hole should be round, drill it bigger if not, and you get clean metal as a bonus. Then, he makes a round plug with a hole saw, and after filling in the 1/4" hole in the center, leave a bit of welding wire or rod sticking out for a handle to get the part tacked in place. For best results, make it fit perfect with the bench grinder and the handle you just made.
