Bumped for any takers please...........

Don't know about the chemi weld, JB weld might work.

If you want to fill, drill and retap then Devcon is the go... we used it in the RAAF and that shit is awesome.
Can be drilled, tapped or machined
Even rebuilt a busted water pump housing with it on my Ski Boat years ago
but....
it isn't cheap and would be only if you cannot get a housing thingy

Don't think that would work.
The holes that are on the engine housing would need to be drilled out bigger. Probably could as a last resort.
