Anyone ever repaired a leak in one of these? Wondering the best filler to use.

Yes, I have. I used JB Weld. Those spots are where the factory drilled oil passageways. They then inserted a ball bearing, which were swaged in place and capped off with a rather rough epoxy. They are all over inside and out of the motor.
Anyways , JB Weld works perfect. Make sure to get the area very clean and degreased first.
Good luck! 😉

Thanks for the info!
 
Years ago our local cycle boneyard would get in big fours that road rashed the bottom of the engine when they went down. JB Weld was used to repair-built up the damages.. and it worked very well,,,,, even drilled and tapped for the metal cover. 😎
