Before trying experimental repair work, find out how rare o common the
basic magneto plate is. Long shoot or sure thing…I do not know
but, seems worth checking out. Many magneto plates like the one
in photo are zinc alloy not aluminum. I do not hold out much
hope that welding would be a lasting repair due to stress of
screw clamping to obtain a friction fit.
It may be that a hole could be drilled and tapped in such a way that the crack could be secured against further breakage. Give lots of
thought to process before starting out.
