Sharkfin issue (racing)

Just found that the mount on the swingarm where you'd bolt the sharkfin to has been snapped off at some point, the issue is i cant race without one fitted.
Anyone have any bright ideas of how or where i can bolt one on?

Dont have a computer at the mo to get photos up, but basically its not got anything left on the swingarm of the mount at all. Only thing i can think of is welding a nut where the mount was. Bit rough but should work.

grind it flat and either:-
rivet, or drill and tap into the swingarm, or self tapping screws,

Ah thats probably better than welding anything. Will give that a go.
