Another thing to consider, I had heard that the lower unit should be removed prior to any welding due to the possibility of electronic component damage. Such as the control module, sensors etc. I'm not sure if there is a way to prevent this by isolating electronics or grounding the engine or even if that is something to be concerned with, just information from a service center.

Man... hate to hear that. Thanks for updating everyone.
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn. ~Chuck Clark
