Aluminum Timing Cover Damage

Mopar-N said
Just picked up this timing cover to put on my 340, noticed the damage to the back of the water jacket port mating surface and was wanting some input regarding if this will seal up ok after its installed with gasket or if I should be looking for another one or maybe get it repaired somehow so there is more meat for gasket.

My 2C worth..

Ive used this many times for repairs including a base pan with a too low sump that scraped a curb. 20 years later still no leaks. It will work just fine to repair the timing cover.
