I have noticed while changing my gearbox oil that my Gearbox casing has a few hairline cracks in it!
It is not leaking any oil so I don't think they have gone right through.
Do you think I should use some chemical metal weld on it?

I'm afraid it might get worse with all the pot holes about at the moment!

They are casting marks. Even brand new ones have them
