Radiator leak

Has anyone welded one of the newer chineseium radiators? Mine has a pinhole leak at one of weld joints. I'm not sure if it's too thin to re-weld.
It's more of an annoyance than anything. It never does anything but feel wet, no drips.
Thanks

Probably a better option with some low temp aluminum rod.
