Thanks for the pic! I have never seen a crack like that in a new part (old and rusted, yes). If that is an actual crack and if the whole thing comes loose in a turn, you could have some serious damage. I would not drive it like that.
I have to wonder if the suspension could not absorb the impact of the pothole for some other reason. Rims don't "absorb" much compared to tires, struts and mounts. I have bent two Viking rims, most people who run on them in winter will do that eventually.
