Certainly brazing was used back in the day.
40 odd years ago I had a 1960s Ducati 250 Scrambler that developed a minor leak on the seam at the rear, the local bike mechanic brazed it for a decent repair.
Certainly a more modern weld would work fine but it would need more preparation, (paint removal) will likely put more heat into the area and therefore burn off even more paint/risk warping?
