With aluminum, indeed, there are not many choices. I have done the same thing as you, having PVC tubing inside, many times, but there always until now have been the clamps, so the seam could be hidden. Not this time around though.
BTW, I have somewhere the special flux and solder for the aluminum soldering but have not tried it yet. I know it is doable though.
Thanks.
