If you have external cracks then that's what you need to worry about. If none of the deck cracks run out to the edge of the block then you're all cool.
To fix the external cracks you take an angle grinder and ding into the cracks to form a V with the crack in the center and then follow up with a good bead of weld from your arc welder. Use a good quality rod, nothing fancy, but not one of those cheapo types. Use your acetelyne torch to preheat the crack to a dull red and move the torch along the crack to maintain the heat just in front of where you are welding. After you're finished you can dress down the bead flush and hit it with a coarse bead blaster to simulate the cast surface. (if you want to go that far)
