I wouldn't try to repair pot metal wilt silver  solder. Pot metal melts 
around 370 degrees, and Silver solder melts around  1200 degrees. Regular 
solder around 370 degrees 
There are low temperature rods specifically  for pot metal that melt around 
350 degrees. Goggle 'Muggsey weld' and you can  get the information.
