[Peugeot-L] N9T Cracked Front Cover

The other week I put a new rocker cover gasket on the '85 Turbo and at the same time I checked the valves. Glad I did as most were on the tight side - PO replaced the head. While in there I noticed that the front cover has a small crack beginning on the top face (rocker cover face, at the boss for the left front rocker cover bolt.

I can't quite figure out what would cause this failure. Maybe over tightening of the rocker cover bolt but that would be significant. Is this a common point of failure?

Regards
John
