Yes. Weld and re-tap the hole.

You can drill and tap elsewhere for a new location for a knock sensor.

ya, thats not the knock sensor, that is the where the oil pressure unit goes

if it was the knock sensor hole you could have just left it, but since its the oil hole it will have oil coming out of it so it needs to either to plug welded (and get an adapter that goes on the oil filter) or be welded and retapped
