I have the engine out of the 1970 Triumph T120R TR6 I aquired in Germany and have need of some bodging advice from you experts out there...
I have just taken the primary chain case off and totally de-greased it..
On closer inspection it looks like some ham fisted fool has hit it with a hammer to loosen it(not me)....


There is a small dent in the aluminium on the outside but on the inside there are three very small cracks radiating from the centre of the dent about half inch long and they look like they might allow oil to seep out and we cant have that...
Are there any products on the market that I could use to fill the cracks that will adhere to the aluminium casing with the hot oil swishing around in there..
I could try get someone to weld it
I am thinking af buying a belt drive clutch conversion that can be run without oil but I dont want to splash out on that until I see what other problems are lurking deeper in the engine.
I cant post a photo at the moment as jnr is out chasing Danish totty with his mates on their bikes and he wont be back until next weekend.
Suggestions please...:thumbup:
