Whoever made that weld didn't start welding yesterday. He (she) probably has a few years behind him. You could use 304 or 308 filler. That being an inside corner weld helps too as that is an easier weld to make than say an outside corner. Easy on the heat and I would think no bigger than 1/16" filler. A pulse tig would be an advantage to some also.

I would bet that it is also welded in a fixture made of copper to disipate heat and keep argon on the back side of the weld to keep the heat effected area down.
