Td5 oil leaking from oil pressure switch, thought it would be a simple re-tap however on closer inspection there was a crack through the housing, I put my nail in the crack and it chipped right off. Now what? If I could get a dremmel in I might be able to cut it back flat and retap and hope it seals. Doubt it. New engine or could it be simpler, I don't know. Please any advise would be great.

might be worth trying JBweld or some other such product.
