If you're not into welding, clean back to metal and reinforce with glassfibre and resin. If the metal is missing completely, just glass in a piece of metal bigger than the hole. As long as you clean things up OK, and keep water and acid out of the repair with a good chassis paint and sealant, it'll be years before you have to think of remaking the repair, by which time you may have learnt welding to sort out other places that are leaking. No repair is permanent, with our cars! Dave.
