I will be making a gear box alignment tool that consist of 5" diameter 304 ss plate tig welded to a short, approx. 24", section of 3" 316 ss pipe. The materials chosen were readily onhand and not for any particular spec. My question is what would be my best choice for filler rod on this job? Thanks..

You want to make a fairly simple tool using material you have already on hand, so there's no need of a great sophistication.
To TIG weld 304 to 316 steel I suggest that you use a ER 308 or 309 rod.
