Dean,

Don't laugh; when I was a younger kid I actually used JB Weld to patch a "window" in a V-6 outboard motor case on my dad's boat. The skirt of a piston broke off and came between the rod and the case and knocked a 2"x2" hole in the aluminum case. I patched the multiple fragments back in the hole with JB Weld. After it had cured I gave it on more layer of coverage and reassembled the motor with a new piston... it was still running 5yrs later when my dad traded it in.
