Rear Main Seal

Well I have some good news pertaining to my oil leak. It is not my rear main as I thought. I added a bottle of UV oil additive to my engine, let the car run for a while then crawled under my car with my black light and found out that the deep part of my oil pan right on the radius has a very slight pin hole. I could not believe my eyes when I saw this but am glad that this is where the leak is. Wonder why my pan started to leak there? There is no damage to the pan in this area. Being preserved with oil I would have never given it a thought. Now my question is would it be alright to get this small area braised then coat it with JB weld or would I be better of to get a new pan? I am leaning towards the latter. I also know that I have to drop the steering lingage enabling me to drop the pan but what about the timing cover? Will I have to loosen that up or does the front of the pan butt up to the bottom of the timing cover? I'll be doing this old school, on my back, so I'm just exploring all avenues before I decided to tear into it. Thanx
