RE: [DML] engine stamping pits can you fill them?

I'm not entirely sure, but would imagine these are there in part to
increase the surface area to create a heat-sink. Otherwise they're just
there to maintain strength whilst saving weight..

Aluminium will only corrode under specific circumstances. Simply being wet
isn't one of them.

I was wondering if anyone out there has found a way to safely fill them
in?If not is there at least some kind of fix anyone would suggest?
