Where did you find a steel cowl scoop? I would weld it in 1" long welds, but only every 4 inches and moving from onside to another to help reduce warpage and finish it off with USC All Meteal Body Filler, Eastwood sells this product. Another way and this would depend on how the edge where it meets the hood is formed. If the flange is bent under towards the inside of the scoop, I would use an epoxy and rivets and finish it off with the All Metal. Leading would be another option but not sure how that would hold up to any flexing.
