Tom,
But if you were thinking of pouring it into the holes, I assume the bike
is
still apart so that you could pour down the hole ?

Yes.

If so maybe you want to
 consider having a weld shop weld it up and then a machine shop re-drill
and
tap it. A competent weld shop should be able to weld the aluminum up no
problem. There's an expense there but the end result would be like new.

Oooh, that's a good idea! Then, if the holes are misaligned, I have
someone else to blame, too!!
