Message Thinner region that mounts to the TBs, a stress concentration will exist where the two regions meet. Excessive vibrations from a rough running engine could have caused the failure. Perhaps the cover was bent at some point while installed and then restraightened which could have created the initial crack.

Just curious, what bend radius was used for these pieces?

Regardless of the cause, kudos for handling it well.
