If none of these work out for you, send me a PM. I have two sets of non-castech 862's in my garage...

5.3 isn't 350. It's about 325 or so. Not that it's material to your question, butt, always better to keep your details under control.
That said, I can't speak to "laid off" or "budget" or any of that; although I'm just as unwilling to spend any more than I have to to get anything done that I want. Butt at a certain level, it costs what it costs, and if ya wanna play, ya gotta pay. Nobody wants to pay hot-rodder prices to get their work truck running; we get that; no need to beat us over the head about it.
There are any number of people that sell "repaired" (welded up) 706s, for fairly cheeeeeeep. I've used these guys for such things before https://www.headsonly.com; I'd bet Jasper and abuncha other places would be not too much different. It's a pretty common thing to have happen.

If I was out of work and had a cracked castech I would pour bars leaks aluminum seal in it and come back to the issue when I had time and money to fix it right.
I've had customers in the past in bad need of help with no money, the bars leak aluminum stuff worked wonders for them. I've seen it seal big leaks in seconds.
I HATE additives and snake oil and band aids, but sometimes that's what we have to work with due to circumstances
