one way to do it, ( there will be others) is to tack weld a home made draw hammer on. ("T" bar with sliding weight)  Or tack braise it on.  draw out the dint, and then untack the draw bar.
That will get you a result that will require the absolute minimum of filling.
A small "skim" of filler should not be a problem?
