I am looking for burner base for a pressurised kerosene Shipmate heater. The one I have is cracked. Burners are readily available but the bases?? It cracked when water got into the fuel can. I thought it was fixed but... cabin-heater The burner is a standard Patra 207 used by a couple different manufacturers. My web searches have ended without success.

Hard to see, but could you braze the crack and burry it in sand to anneal??

I have thought of that and I may have to but is a very tight crack and getting rod to flow may be problematic.

Well as it turned out the base isn't cracked but the threads are stripped. Found out the hard way. I was checking it out, off the boat of course and all of a sudden after making an adjustment, kerosene every where and fire. No problem. SO I am definitely looking for a replacement.
