Default Repair Ideas..?

This is the place where the radiator rod bracket would be attached to the firewall, drivers side....

I'm pretty sure that is the fuel tank directly behind....I can make a patch, but do I weld it?

I'm a little leery of welding anywhere near the fuel tank..

So my other idea was, to make a backing plate larger than the hole, install it on the fuel tank side using panel adhesive to attach it, then cutting and fitting a patch for the hole so the repair is flush with the firewall, and then the bracket goes on....

Ideas?
