no, but you could make one if you have a tap. Any weld on alloy boss is going to distort when welded unless it's huge. Better to weld a block of alloy and then drill and tap it.

Just wind in a mild steel bolt whilst it's welded, stops the distortion completely.
BGC Motorsport is a ace site for these, but if stuck I can soon knock you one up FOC, pm me.
