Default Block cracked where the oil pressure switch goes in - OMG!

I need help. The oil pressure sensor on my b18b was tighten a little too tight and the block cracked where the thread goes in. What can I do, I've tried searching but came up with liitle information. I know this had happen to people before. Is there anyone who can help?

2 Options:

1)Have it welded, and relocate your oil psi switch to a oil sandwich...

2)Get a new block...
