Looks like when they spread the track (to create the insertion point for the tramp rope) the metal got weakened and subsequently corroded. Not a big deal but annoying, yes.

If you have access to or know a fabricator with a TIG or MIG welder you could fill it with Aluminum and grind flat

It may be worth drilling a small hole at the end of the crack line so as to prevent further risk of the crack migrating.
