Fixing Farmall Emblem

I have a metal Farmall emblem off the side of my engine cowl that has two of the pin(studs) broken off. I have the pins still, what is the best
way, or is it even possible to reattach them? Thanks in advance for any ideas.
 
They are a kind of shot weld. Stud weld? Done with an induction welder. Someone knows the correct name. The reason is those little clips in the back rust and then people try to pry them off. Snap! My guess is very few shops have the correct welder to fix them and don't think they make repos.
 
The emblem is steel and the studs are brass? (guessing, non magnetic and gold colour when cleaned), not sure how it would be possible to weld the two together.

Drill a new hole, countersink the head, and when you have it installed, touch up the countersink to look original.

I had that problem with a side emblem for a cub Loboy. I just drilled a hole through the emblem at the proper spot and secured it with a stainless #10 screw, with nut and washer. The stainless screw is almost as shiny as the emblem and it won't rust.
 
Solution I went with in the end was Loctite Super Bonder 409 mixed with baking soda. I scuffed up the back of the emblem and the studs, mixed the glue and soda together, dabbed a bit on the emblem and set the studs in. Once in place, I added more glue mix around the studs and base, then clamped. After 24 hours the studs were as solid as a weld.
