Why would you sillicone/plastic weld something? I mean if it was metal, then I can understand that. Maybe it's more common than I know of but have never heard of that method before. Heres a Bump to the top for you though.

If it doesn't hold the pump is cheap at Rockauto.com. Did the same thing and it still leaked. Fun getting the big nut off the pump itself. I used a deep socket, extension and turned the reservoir upside down to reassemble..
