Motor Mount..........Oil pan busted.

About a year ago, I had the infamous "idler pulley/idler arm/serpentine belt" disaster. When I got it back, I noticed a new noise - a clanging like something loose - when my wife back out of the driveway. Took it back, and they could find nothing. Several months later, when being serviced by a Saab tech, I mentioned the noise: sounds like something is loose. They could find nothing.
This weekend, I found a pool of oil underneath the car. This time the problem was diagnosed: busted motor mount left the oil pan rubbing against the cross-member, finally wore a hole in the pan.
A new pan is $400+ labor. This is an aluminum pan, has anyone had one welded? Seems to be a reasonable alternative to a new pan.
