Firebird Q-Jet 7029268 baseplate with a . . .

[ted]

snapped off driver's side rear ear. Question is; could a welder cut a similar corner from another Q-Jet, massage it a wee bit and weld it to the above 9268 base plate in order to bolt the Quadrajet on safely and not be noticeable thereby using the original base plate?

A wee bit of history on this. Maybe 35 years ago, when I was collecting any and all Q-Jets, I spotted this one in a garage trash barrel and took her home. I guess at the time, welding of this material was not do-able. Now 35 - 40 years later I am asking this Q.
Thanks in Advance!
