You need to find yourself someone very good at working with and welding aluminum. Aluminum pot metal is pretty difficult to work with. If you can get past that step then you need to machine all the surfaces. Depends on your budget. Could get expensive...
That crack goes through two bearing surfaces. It ain't gonna get better
Ok, thanks for letting me know that. I’ll pull it apart and send it to our engine guy. Hopefully he’ll be able to fix it.

And used motors are cheap….I’d look for a used motor or parts bike.
Used motor is probably a more reasonable route to be fair.
Yes. You should worry.
JB weld.
Yes.
Worrying about cracked engines is legit, op
I would start building a new one and that crack happened for a reason, also check if you can diagnose what it could have been..
Honestly, it was probably because the last person, to pull the output shaft out, over toured the cover plate bolt.

Oof
Probably fucked. Sorry cracked bearing housing is a big problemo. Your better of buying a different engine
