...diff mount part of the rear cross member assembly (yeah its the bit with the sway bar perched on top)
VR/VS are known for breaking the cross member but usually not where the diff mounts up

thats a bad crack and there is no way I would be driving the car with that

They are pretty common to crack in the v8's usually at the front where the k frame is moulded, go and grab another rear k frame and put it in. There is no point in welding the old 1 up as it will break again in 12 months
