By welding do you mean to weld the fitting to the pan or add more metal to the pan so that there is more thread engagement?

Weld on aluminum fittings with male AN flares are available from seevral manufactures including XRP. Weld directly to pan to keep things simple.

We tried the bulkhead fitting and had a leak at startup. We ended up just welding an -10AN male on there. No problems with oil leak.
