Had a crack on my rear engine.
Since it was light case, only feasible repair was a new REMAN engine. I was told that if it is a light case, it can be welded. However, you need to address the crank AD at the time. Also, if they are going to weld it, you might as well do an overhaul, because they have to take the entire engine apart.

Crack extended from near the prop flange, fuel controller, forward (rear engine) to near one of the cylinder bases.
