OK heres the go as per the link yuo supplied but i would do the following
i would use a 3.25 mm ni fe nickel iron type weld electrode at around 110 amps
set the welder on straight polarity that is for this proccess negitive electrode is used this will give a shallower type weld so as not to induce cracking
make sure the item is preheated to remove the chill and moisture
use flame or heat gun
do short type weld passes and pein each pass to stress releive with a small ball pein hammer
then file down to shape.
