I would try to clean it out good with a hot water pressure washer. Then I"d dry it real good and then sandblast at least the area needing repaired to clean it good. Then you could fill with some water ? I use a propane torch and acid core solder works real good. Might be really hard to braze or weld as these were soldered when new.
I WOULD NOT fill with exhaust,did that once and had it flash on me ! I think the exhaust had combustables in it that lit.
