its called JB weld it will bond any thing to any thing

Copper and aluminum form a bond that when it gets wet will cause the aluminum to disintegrate. This is called electrolysis. If you have any choices, use copper fins, as a second choice aluminum pipe as an alternative. Aluminum has a very poor coefficient of heat. JB weld will work.
