I would make or have made a top hat reinforcing section that fits snugly inside the chassis rail in question. I would weld the crack and then hot rivet the reinforcing section inside the chassis rail. This has been a successful and pragmatic repair that my friend Joss Campbell carried out on a couple of chassis, it also dosen't look out of place, or out of period.
