Engine casing repair

I've just finished completely stripping my engine to have the casing aqua blasted prior to a complete rebuild. Once I'd cleaned the numerous years worth of dirt away I noticed that there is a crack that goes through one of the transfer ports to the other side of the mag housing flange. Can anyone recommend the best place to send/take to have it repaired, I live in North Wales but if I need to send it by courier than that's fine. Sorry about the poor image, taken on my phone

Hi, no the casing is not ported it's a standard Li s 125. here's a slightly better image of the damage, unfortunately my friend now has the casing as he's having it cleaned for me.

If the crack goes all the way through the casing then it needs repairing correctly.In your position I would get in touch with MB developments,they do weld repairs to engine cases.
