Default leak between the cases

i have a 1995 1200 sportster with i figure 49-50000 miles runs great but it has 2 pin hole leaks where the casings split.i know the thing to do would be complete tear down. but seeing how my mechanic is way behind as it is has any one ever fixed these with something like jb weld?? i realies it would have to be ground out when they do get split
