We had a Farmall 450 that ran a bearing under bull gears. This was done sometime before we bought it. I believe there was a patch on the underside. But to keep the lubricants from seeping there was a yellow "plastic" like substance applied to the inside of the transmission case. Never leaked! I am sure the cast had been cleaned well and the "sealant" applied. Maybe just a sealant would be enough to correct the situation. If the point of injury is buldged out some maybe hammer it back. Nickel rods do work well on this type of material. So, hammer it back, weld it up, grind it off, and seal it up in the inside and maybe put multiple coats of primer on the outside. This may not really be a "structural" problem ... more so a "leak".
