I would have to advise against it. The fork is cast,
and the shaft is hardened steel. I'm afraid you would
create a heat affected zone on the shaft where you
welded which would make it susceptible to cracking.
Just cross-bolt it with a grade 8 bolt and sleep well
knowing you have the extra insurance.

What are the list's thoughts about welding the clutch

the shaft to remove/replace the clutch release bearing
if I weld it?
Seems for the cost of a shaft
and release fork it's an easy and sure way out of the
broken pin
problem -- pulling the transmission
etc.
