Epoxy and then sandpaper is what I would use then its as good and strong as new

Larger gasket won't help if there's no mating flange to press against it. The existing gasket is the full size of the fitting. Oversize would tend to squeeze out as well.
Silicone should do fine.

drill out larger for the next size up

duct tape...fixes everything... thats what the one glass company told me you get a crack in your tank duct tape it it will hold the water until you can deal with it... needless to say i didnt order my glass from them. but it gave me an idea fro a duct tape tank i may build lol.

No, I don't want to drill more than I have to, it's always stressful And my luck, I'd chip it again and still have to deal with it, and exchange the bulk head, get new plumbing, etc...
