The worst case would be for the aluminium burning away during the welding. Try map gas heating and an easy-out tool. Might also be able to drill the bolt/stud completely out and re-thread with a slightly larger bolt. Then drill the thermostat cover hole to accommodate for larger bolt. Use antiseize compond on threads during replacement.
