For those who missed it, this is my first time working on or (barely getting to do) riding on a motorcycle.
Where do I want to separate for the shop?
He alluded to potential size issues and I also wonder if weight could be a problem (although I suspect not).

I'm guessing #3 is best but I wanted to verify its feasibility first

Not if you JB Weld it in place... and JB Weld the broken piece in place, to fill the void. I suspect you could seal it up enough to ride with. It's not a race bike! :whistle:

What about #2 at the carbs? Probably a good time replace carb gaskets too since they look worn?
(I think I may have a vacuum problem as well, but I haven't been able to get the idle steady enough to check)

Regarding the carb holders (the rubber things between the carbs and cylinder head) before you loosen or try to remove them FIRST find a set of replacements. That may prove to be difficult depending on your model bike, so you don't want to mess up the existing carb holders if replacements are not available.

of shit. You CAN NOT WELD IT WITH OIL RUNNING OUT OF IT.
Go read my drag strip thread and you will see where I hung my oil filter bolt on the trailer
edge and ripped the oil filter mounting boss filter and all out of the case and what it took to fix it.
IMHO your best bet would be find a motor or find a new bike as I'm not sure you have the know how to fix it right.
Oh by the way that rubber washer go's on the oil filter inside the cover.
