Default PROBLEM!!! starter bolt hole broken

The outside starter bolt hole on my block(aluminum) is broken off. i didnt catch it when i bought the engine. looks like a repair job was tried on it. any suggestions on what to do? i have pics but too big to upload. can send them through email.

Same thing happened to me, a bolt in my clutch came out, flew around , got inbetween the flywheel and the gear on the starter, broke the starter off the block, along with the starter bolt hole. I had to get a person that could weld aluminum to weld it back on.
