To be honest, the diff casing is so thin you run the risk of actually making it worse! [Unless you are a pro welder]
You'd be better off cleaning/degreasing the area and repairing it with a compound. JB Weld is great for that sort of thing  Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant. |

You could use something like this I did a temporary repair on a sump with it and it was still there 4 years later when I changed my car.
