Weld this case or replace it?

I picked up an '83 SC 3.0 that has been wrecked very hard. The engine case has a crack
that runs up the structural webbing behind the flywheel (see pict.) Should I even consider having this welded or just find a good donor case? I realize that the engine needs to be pulled apart and inspected from the inside out. I guess my question is, has anyone repaired a case in this area with success? The 915 transmission in the other picture has a crack/tear in the bellhousing...weld or replace??
Any direction or opinions on this would be appreciated.
