LC chain crank damage fix?

[zig]

just putting this out there ..... i am thinking about purchasing a top crankcase to cut and remove the usual chain damage piece from it and grafting it 

onto my damaged case ....

has anyone else any other ideas rather than take down a perfectly good running engine ?

think this would be a nice 3D Printed part just to slip in to

Shag in Hull (AJs Vapour Blasting) can make the piece and weld it in. He does a great job.I have one for him to do when I get around to it. Seems a shame to butcher some usable cases for the part.

Done this repair using a badly trashed top case (engine was abused and left to die and they were cheaper back then) and with parts that I made. Both work.
