Anyone have experience with this? What to use, etc? BTW, this is for the tranny ear.

Buy a used tranny and rebuild it. Between the two you should find enough good parts for one, sell what's left. Turn the rest in as scrap. On a cast item it is very difficult to weld anything and retain any structural strength. Consider, you can only do a surface weld. It can never be as strong as a solid piece. It would be just as advisable to glue it back together. Forget about it.
