I used the crown kirkrod 1/8 or smaller size rods. you need stainless wire brushes and acetone to clean.
 I bought a 1/2 pure copper tube from plumbing store and that fit inside the clutch arm, so it backed up the hole I needed to fill with weld.
 I made a new weld bung out of solid alum. round bar material, then drill and tap for new drain plug, I bought a 10mmx1.5mm 2007 kx250 drain bolt.
 I plan on welding a sheet skid plate to chassis to protect this engine.
 
 the tig welder is great for being able to flow out or fill all porous pin holes that can delevope.
 the repair turned out great in my opinion. but that filler rod is tricky.
I couldn't figure out pics to add
