Did the 205 also come in aluminum?
You'll need a special process and rod to arc weld it.

205s are iron, do you mean an NP208? You can weld Aluminum, but as said it's probably easier to get a new case.

Yes, I mean 208. I was thinking one thing and typing another.

NP208 cases are cheap and plentiful, I'd get another one and either swap the entire unit or just the guts...whatever makes more sense. I had a coworker once decide to weld an TH350 case that he busted on his pickup and it ended up being more effort that it was worth...and he was a proffessional industrial fabricator/welder. He sold the truck shortly thereafter so it wasn't his problem anymore.
