I have a genuine trans seal kit to go in, but now i'm just like well do i weld a bit to it and sand it down or do i just buy a whole new box?
 
Do you mean the little chunk missing from the housing?
What will that affect?
If the casing isn't cracked and the part the seal goes in isn't damaged I would leave it.

Just above that its also pitted into the seal area, i need to disassemble the box, but that will be a job for tomorrow to see if it's worth salvaging.. but from what i understand this is the outer seal right?
 
If I remember rightly that seal doesn't stop oil getting out.
If it was me I would fit the kit since you have it.
How much is a new box nowadays, £700?

Yes it’s just a dust seal. Don’t worry about welding it.

On your rebuild are you going to use a disco drop arm kit?
 
ok.. now we're in FFS territory
