There used to be stuff called Lumiweld I think that did the same sort of thing, know some people that have used it ages ago but cannot remember what
the results where. Have emailed them to get a response
Strangely enough it was also to repair BSA engine casings

I have used it to repair cracked and holed ally castings on my BSA motorbike.
It worked ok and I was able to finish and polish it up so you couldn't feel the join. The only (minor) issue was that it was a slightly
different colour to the original alloy but not very noticable.

I have used it to make the intake trunking on my FI Stuart Taylor Locost. There's a picture
here
I first made a 14" length of 75mm diameter tube from a sheet of 1mm alloy sheet and also put a 60 degree bend in it - all with Lumi-weld. I have
also made a square to round adaptor to fit a K&N style cone air filter onto the mouth of the Air Flow Meter for the fuel injection system.

Is it the same stuff they sell in B&Q about £4 for 2 sticks looks very much like a brazing rod.
Bought some as it said you can use it with a blow torch but there was no way I could get enough heat into the job.
Cheers,
