I'm trying to remember where that post is, I think it is on the inner clutch cover.  You have a few easy options (assuming my memory is right regarding where that post sits)..

1) (the smart one)... go on ebay and buy a used and intact inner case cover.  I think I paid about $70 for my last one, and that was without waiting for a deal.
2) (cheaper gamble #1)... take the inner clutch cover that I cracked and then aluma-welded and that is sitting in my garage, and put that on, and put it on, and see if it leaks or cracks again.
3) (cheaper gamble #2 if you have the old parts)... aluma-weld the post back on and see if it holds up.
4)  (cheaper gamble #3) grind what is left of the post flat, drill a hole in it, tap it, and thread in a bolt.  The bolt would have to have some kind of slotted collar in the top... maybe you could drill through the head then slot it with a dremel tool cutting wheel, and put an extra lock nut on the bolt shaft so you can tighten it down in the right position.  That depends on enough material in case to anchor the bolt, which is by no means a given.  That post sees non trivial forces.

Where are you at?  Near Dayton / Cincinnati Ohio?
