Liquid metel will not work. Either find an anchor at the home depot (there is a whole section in hardware near the drywall anchors , masonry anchors) to screw into or make a plate to attach that has new holes in it for the screws, you can make this out of aluminum and rivit on, if you do it nicely it will hardley be noticable.
