If I may be so bold as to interpret what Randall was saying, you 
could develop a crack at some unknown time in the future.  Can you be 
sure that this won't happen?  Can you be sure there is none now?

You may have driven it for some time with no trouble.  If it was me, 
I'd be looking for a bell housing replacement now.  If you can't find 
one, call Quantum Mechanics, in Monroe CT.  If necessary, get help 
with the swap.  It will be an opportunity to examine and possibly 
replace the clutch too.
