If that is the case here's how I would approach the repair. Heat up the area with the crock pot or heat gun until the crack is open . Remove heat source and mix up gray epoxy and force in as much as possible . Let it cool and close up . That " should " squeeze out epoxy causing a ridge above the surface . Clean the surface but leave the ridge . Next day use a single edge razor blade to cut the ridge to surface level . Or you can call " the guy "
.
I think there is a good chance the repair will hold , only fear being will the crack continue inward . Normally you would drill a hole to stop the crack to continue on but I have no idea if you do that with this type of repair . Good luck with whatever you decide .
