Can't see in the photo well enough to know exactly how it attaches but any chance the linkage mods could be made separately on something that takes the form of a shaped L bracket or a separate plate? Arrange the needed parts on that piece and then screw to the carb rather than weld.

Without looking at an actual carb but only going on photos, it looks like there would be room for a couple of small screws on what I think is the same piece. The screws would be located inward from where it appears it was welded. Unless welding was done by a pro with experience on small thin pieces, think I would try something like that first.

If it doesn't attach where I think but rather on the fast idle screw support then make a piece out of larger solid stock that would fit snugly over or in that assy and use the fast idle screw thru the block to hold it in position.
