broken cable stop

The cable stop for the front derailleur finally let go, I really don't want to mess up the paint, so I thought of one of these

and a quality metal on metal type epoxy, I'm not talking JB weld here, there are many types of specialized epoxy available to permanently bond metal to metal. I like the investment casting stop, mainly because it has a large curved surface that would seem ideal for bonding. Has anyone else ever tried using a quality epoxy to bond one of these? I forgot to mention, it's a Cromoly frame
