MG Midget and Sprite Technical - Front panel attachment

I am rebuilding the front panel of my 1971 midget. Radiator tray and valance strengthener were completely rusted out. I have welded in replacements for the above but can't tell whether they are supposed to be welded together. Does the lip of the tray fix to the strengthener or is there supposed to be movement to facilitate lining up panels as it all goes back together?
Thanks in advance.

Hope they're helpful.

Thanks Dave, I guess that's a yes to the weld but it isn't 100% clear from the pics.
