Doing a quick dilution calculation with assumed parent and consumable chemistry the resulting weld material will have approximately 5% ferrite. At 760deg C (1400 deg F) you may form some sigma which will reduce the notch toughness at ambient. Given your description since this “plug” is acting as a “plug” things should be ok.
