Toby, the best time to have replaces the pilot bushing would have been while the tractor was spit for the clutch.
In any event eplacing it now would not involve replacing the block. It's centered up in the enrar end of the crank.
I agree with the others that the epoxy patch for the old crack (lemme guess, it's behind the carburetor) will hold.

I vote for keeping your block and getting that pilot bushing taken care of.
