The invention relates to a filler for manufacturing porous metal manufactured with a filler pouring method and a filling method for the filler. The filler for manufacturing the porous metal comprises the following components including beta-silica sand, beta-quartz powder, sodium-based activated bentonite, plant ash, graphite powder, inorganic salt, kieselguhr, common clay, bauxite, red clay, yellow clay, crucible mud and neutral water. The filler is prepared according to the proportion and is evenly stirred, dried, coated in a soaking manner and dried to be arranged into a manufactured die in a filling manner, a sealing opening is compressed through an exhaust plate, heating is carried out, and pouring of metal liquid is prepared. A pure natural raw material is adopted in the filler, taste and toxin are avoided in the pouring process, environmental protection is achieved, pollution is avoided, repeated recycling can be achieved, resources and cost are saved, the refractoriness is high, collapsing after pouring is prone to occurrence, cleaning is facilitated, the filler does not have a reaction with metal liquid, and the performance of the porous metal material is better guaranteed.
