Broken tail housing...help!

I made a sad discovery today. The tail housing on my '92 auto is broken where it bolts to the transfer case. I put the floor jack under the t-case to hold the weight while I worked on the cross-member and the t-case moved independently from the transmission. Apparently this occured when my donor was becomming a donor, and I never saw it before.




So, what are my options? Where do I get another housing? Or, do I replace the whole o.d. unit? Help me out here. Thanks.
