Cutting to the chase, will these forks (400SS):

fit this bike:

AND will the right-side fork (M600) here:
http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b47681919
fit the left-side of the bike shown? --caliper mounting required--
Now the story leading up to the chase:
See the green arrow? That is where the plastic sheath of the steel braided brake hose wore down to the steel braid, which then wore a groove in the aluminium upper fork housing, until this morning fork oil leaked out through a tiny hole.
Is it possible to have the forks stripped down, welded, and rebuilt? If I buy a set of stock forks, and use the right-side fork on the left of the bike (I need caliper mounts on both sides), should I worry about them not being 'a pair'? Are either of the second hand forks I gave links to adjustable?
