Help!!! Mallory Zb distributor housing weld repair

Hey guys, Today I made an attempt to disassemble and clean my Mallory ZB distributor.
I was able remove the breaker plate and counter weights and thats it.
I got stuck at removing the pin on the distributor drive gear.

While I was trying to punch out the pin , the distributor was wrapped in a rag on a bench vise. I removed it from the vise to change the plan of attack when I noticed the case broken. 😮www.jalopyjournal.net💨

Can this be welded or brazed?
