Default Outdrive Cracking

Today after boating I noticed a crack on the rear of my outdrive 1/2" from rear that was several inches vertical. I do not remember hitting anything. Boat pulled to left a little bit as well. Is this a major problem?

more info...any crack is prob worth worrying about..but one that seeps some drive oil would be at the top of the list..is the crack on the upper or lower part of the drive...I am guessing Bravo since I see a 26 OL in your sign on...I have seen them crack vertically where the bearing sets in the lower...( straight back from the prop shaft to the fat part) but you would be seeping oil for sure if the crack is there.
