Too much heat Can ruin the temper of the material and make it a brittle, causing cracks, hmmmmm ... might already have.I would repair it with lap pieces, but would use closed rivets and the special air tools to set them. Prime, then goop the area or between piece with G-Flex 650, a flexible epoxy would be my choice. Use same alloy. I have a full sheet of 5052 if you need some pieces cut.</blockquote>
