Hi All

I have found a small crack in the nosepiece of my 1929 chassis.

The pictures aren't too clear but the pencil mark denotes the crack's extent.  There are a couple of scratch or foundry marks close to it which confuse things.

Since the photos were taken I've drilled a 2.5mm hole just beyond where I think the crack ends.

Now.... can this be repaired or is the nose piece scrap?

If its the latter does anyone have one I can purchase?
