I have even seen people stick little magnets and/or small blocks of steel on with jb weld at appropriate points in race cars; but, for some reason, I just don't think I want to depend on that in an airplane.

        Yes, this is possible. I have operated a pip sensor with a steel set screw in an aluminum disk before. However, a steel "ring gear" would be a better bet. You know it will work if you made it look like the stock timing disk. It would be less likely to vibrate out of position unnoticed.
