A little accident happened yesterday. I have a transmission that I was working on. It's ready to put in the car. It was on the floor and I was carrying a floor jack in my hands. When I went to put the jack on the floor next to the transmission, one of the wheels hit the transmission by accident. I noticed it made a little crack. The crack is located here:
Fortunately, it is on the bellhousing so accessing the other side is no problem. Here is a close-up of the crack:

What should I do now? A friend said just drill the ends and JB weld it. That would be an easy fix but I think it should be welded. It's not a transmission that is too common, so I would not like to have it crack more over time... Thanks!
