While needle scaling the head, I created/exposed a hole into the water passage (pic). It seems to me that on this flat surface, I can do a durable repair by: making an inside and outside steel cover plate each with a centered small bolt hole, removing the adjacent freeze plug, placing the inside plate and nut, gooping JW Weld in the hole and plate surfaces, placing the outside plate and bolt, and tightening the bolt and nut to form the JW Weld to seal the hole. Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
