    broken cam chain tensioner guide blade support lug

    Hi all, yet another problem. There is a small tab on the upper cranckase that has broken off. This tab supports the sprung blade the camchain tensioner bears on. it is directly behind the blade pivot. I have access to an aluminium MIG/MAG welder at work but i don't want to risk completely wrecking my cases. Can this be stuck back on with Quiksteel or JBweld or since iam putting a new guide holder(part no 12776-45001, the old one had diaintegrated) in could i leave it broken as it is only a 10MM piece that has broken off and the new guide holder will support the blades? Anybody had more headaches than me? This bike is the gift that keeps on giving!Thanks, Matt
