The cracks are around the area that is surrounding the oil pickup
The baffle seems to be made of fairly thick steel, so how it has suffered what I presume are stress cracks is a mystery to me
I'll take it apart and post some more pictures later

There's some baffling under the plate, you can see weld penetration showing through on mine.
The half moon cut out on yours looks like it's hard up against the sump (Could be camera angle) that with weld penetration could have made the plate brittle. If you haven't removed it yet, you'll be in for a shock, it weights a ton!
However it appears to have just shifted the cracks to either side of the plate
I'm getting it welded and will post pics of the repair when I get it back
