either replace the crankshaft, or you can try building it up with bronze and filing it out.
Edit, like the guy below me said, did you damage the keyway (channel in the crankshaft) or the key (the thing that goes in the keyway and locks the harmonic balancer to the crankshaft.)

You might be able to get a new keyway at Honda and fix the problem. You must also look at the crank pulley to see if that is also damaged. Its hard to say what you can do without pics. If you had pics of the crank and pulley we can tell you what to do.

From parts drawings at bkhondaparts.com , it appears the keyway is a part of the crankshaft. Several threads here in the past report damaged keyways. If a new key will not sit securely in the keyway, then it appears the only solution is a new crankshaft. See for example https://honda-tech.com/zero...86512 . Note the photos and the guy who tried JB Weld.
Depending on how bad it looks, I would be seeking a junkyard crankshaft and the procedure for replacing the same at various free online manual sites.
