Default OS 70 Surpass - Crankcase, Repair or New?

I had a Phoenix Models Giles that went through a tree...long story.... anyway, believe it or not I didn't break the prop but managed to bend both the pushrod tubes and pushrods. That wasn't too bad until I noticed after I got the new pushrod tubes and pushrods that one of the crankcase housing has cracked where the pushrod tube goes into the crankcase, and unfortunately I don't have the peice that broke off. Tower wants about $60 for the crankcase....a little pricey I think.

However, it seems to me that there used to be a place that could repair that kind of damage to crank cases and carburator housings. Does anyone know a company that would do this?

Any suggestions and information are greatly apprecaited.

Thanks!
