A method for manufacturing a casing, for example, an exhaust casing, for a turbomachine. The method generally includes: (a) producing casing sectors, each casing sector having a hub sector, a ferrule sector, and at least one arm linking the hub and ferrule sectors, (b) arranging the casing sectors adjacently and circumferentially, such that each hub sector has longitudinal edges facing longitudinal edges of adjacent hub sectors, (c) welding the longitudinal edges facing the hub sectors, and (d) adding and welding at least a second part of the ferrule to the casing sectors.

A method of repairing a rod guide assembly of a fuel control unit of an aircraft engine is provided.
