Neither.

When a card uses its own name, it really means "this object" and doesn't actually care about the name. For this reason, the Welder will have the ability to make copies of itself - so it'll make 1/4 creatures that can exile artifacts in graveyards and gain their activated abilities, not 1/1s that can copy themselves. However, it does not copy what's imprinted on the original Welder; each copy of the Welder will have its own set of imprinted cards, which will start out empty.

It is the same ability word for word, technically, but the copies are still Myr Welder copies and not Myr Propagator copies. When an object refers to itself by name, it only means "this object". Now, unfortunately, the copies do not have all the activated abilities of the original Welder. Those abilities are not part of the Welder's copiable characteristics, which are only what's printed on the card itself. The cards that the original Welder exiled are not cards that the copy exiled, so the copy's second ability does not see them. The copy has to exile cards of its own to gain new activated abilities.
