internal three-dimensional cavity, the cavity having an opening to an
outer surface of the metal portion, a ledge circumferentially surrounding
at least a portion of the opening, and a porous metal insert formed in a
three-dimensional shape conforming to the shape of the cavity and
enclosed by the cavity without being bonded to the cavity. The insert is
retained inside the cavity by the ledge.
