Makes me think of the cast oil pan on my Massey Super 90. How somebody 
managed to crack that Perkins diesel oil pan is beyond me but it was 
welded up

and remains in use today. I suspect that break was more due to the 
operator than the design. I'd have to say it is a pretty durable old 
tractor otherwise.
