Thanks for the replies!  I thought welding it would be a solid idea, but that is a little outside of my wheelhouse 

That can't be welded -- unless you  weld it to the shaft

Hi Reebs: You could try drilling & tapping the cap only and use a few small set screws to tighten it down.

I like the setup in the second video 

Never never seen anything like that

HI: Big Welcome Here ---- This should help

To start the fan when you turn the key on --- just unplug the fan unit -- on the harness place a jumper from the pink wire to the blue wire -- If you don't what to use the oil sensor in the circuit. If you are going use the fan controller and oil sensor, the go with a switch ( as Goober posted above) 

But the bike should have started after trailering it home in 32 F weather.

At 150 C the res. should be 306 -340 ohms.   Do this with the key on -- ground the wire that you removed from oil sensor to a bare spot on the frame --fan should start -- you don't need oil in the bike to try it.

should be 9.5 -- 10.5 Kohms  --- try putting cig. lighter flame near the probe end of switch -- resistance should drop down

Put the black probe on the threads

Put the black probe on the threads

Prime the carb to see if will start --- You can test the switch inside

Is bike Neutral light on?

Are you getting spark? Plug against the engine

Yes and yes. 

Is the oil filter in the right way? Is it turning over good?

Hi: From what I see the Oil Temp. sensor only brings the Oil temp light on -- no shut down.  When it's real winter cold here I have found that you have to prime the carb. to get the bike started again. But the over heated engine will seize.
