I don't really have any more time to mess around with this thing and I can't afford even the cheap welder you mention or I would go that route. I'm going to either cut the chain or use a bike chain link tool and remove a link and just remove it. I know there are some conflicting opinions, but I figure I can live with a little vibration. If it really gets annoying I can always drop the oil pan, remove the timing cover, and go at it one more time and probably do the weld plan.
I'll have to post pics when I'm all done.
