Engine blocks can be welded using an ARC welder with rod for welding cast iron. You have to drill a 1/8 hole at each end of the crack to prevent further cracking when welding. Weld an inch, let it cool, then repeat until crack is welded. The other process for repairing is using soft plugs , drill, tap, screw in untill the head twists off. Each plug has to overlap the previous plug to prevent leakage.
