Default Worth fixing or replacing

Had a mate come over the other week to check the engine over and noticed a small crack on the bottom end. Will get a pic up at some point but the crack is no more than 5mm long.
So the question is......is it worth welding/fixing or just replace it.

Many thanks

Won't stay 5mm for long................if it were me I'd replace it, freshen the engine up too.
