Alfa 164 v6 cracked inlet plenum - can these be welded?

One of the mounting lugs on the inlet plenum is cracked.
Can these be welded?
Anyone know anyone who can do it in N London/Herts area?

It's only aluminium so no reason why not. Can't recommend anyone in your neck of the woods but Geoff Turton at GNT in Widnes would be able to do it easily enough. Is it a 12V or 24V plenum you need? I might have a 12V spare.

Cheers

It's 12valve isn't it Steve?
I have a spare plenum if you need it but it will weld successfully at any decent fabrication shop.

Thanks to kind replies.
It is a 12v cloverleaf, but if anyone wants to sell me one, i am happy to buy.
I will then get the old one welded when I can as a spare for anyone else.

PM me your address Steve and I'll drop a spare Cloverleaf one in the post to you next week. Just keep yours for the next person that needs one.
