Patching the air box
#2
G'Day Craig,
Is it a split or a hole?
I've mended splits before with the careful application of a soldering iron (including radiator reservoir bottles!), running the hot iron tip along the split slowly (and at an angle) Holes can be patched with fibreglass mat, or small ones possibly with a bolt and wide mudguard washers. Have also used silicon.
It's a low pressure vaccuum region, so is not going to put huge stresses on a repair.
Cheers, SB
