Turns out I windowed timing cover.

Yesterday I made a post about my chain guide getting torn to shreds. Stripped down the front of motor to prepare to change guides and soon found out that somehow it windowed the timing cover. I'm assuming it all got bound up and flew out? Trying to decide the best option I have right now. Either find new timing cover and spend $200+ or idk if this would be a bad idea but maybe Jb weld it back? Keep in mind the timing cover is coming off any ways so I'd appreciate any feed back. Really trying to save money.

Doesn't look to bad/big of hole. I don't think it would hurt to clean it up with a dremel and JB weld it.

Was thinking the same thing. Just wanted to get some input. thanks

I think your primary concern should be what caused the chain system to lock up and come apart.

Hence the other thread.

Yeah i agree with the other guys, dremel and jb weld, cost you less than 10 bucks to repair.
