I'd consider metal stitching first. I had a block welded up years ago simple job I was assured until he hit a porous bit of iron and a 5mm weld area stretched into a 50x30 mm

At least if metal stitching fails you should still be able to weld it. But stitching is an effective method and been used for years.
