Just picked up a new to me No1 MK III

I don't even know how one would repair a split like that,

I've seen them repaired with a pin, the fine brass threaded rod like the one at the draws. They were done in service.

Brownell’s sells a “stock repair pin kit” in 1/8” or 3/32” diameters, FYI.

I have a mix of RLO/Mineral Spirits I use on Mil-Surps. Figured to tear it down and do the stock repair first, then hit it with the RLO/MS mixc.
