It will be tough to clean all of the oil out and weld and Aluminum case :-\ Probable be alot easier to call Hawk and get them to send you one or get one form someone in the garage sale that is parting out their Kick.

If it is a small crack, you might drain it, clean it, JB weld it, fill and flush it then fill it again. Even then I wouldn't drive it offroad until I got it fixed/replaced.
I too have an aluminum axle housing (asuming that's what broke) and an aluminum third (sorry, no gears - just the housing) laying about.
pm me if you want either of them cheap.

Man, pulling the front diff is about a 30 minute job, if that... it's a a breeze... take it out and do it right... seriously..

Actually, what quaddog said is the right method.
