Cracked Transmission casing On B5001

[BERLINERBEER]

I have managed to crack the Gear box front cover (don't ask... Very embarrassed). I can seem to locate a replacement or discover a part number. I don't know if I could be repaired with a metal putty type stuff?

Yah think?
From the look of those breaks, I would be going for a new or used part, instead of TIG welding.

I said that before I found a cover.
With him being in the UK, the German Part supplier would work for him, and not so much for a USA based person.

But I've seen far worse repaired.

Hopefully you learned a lesson, if not order one and weld the cracked one.
