The reason it happened is probably because you didn't build up enough aluminum foil on your armature. Cracks happen when S.S. cures and it is too thick.
1. if the crack is small enough and the arm has not come off completely , fill with more Super Sculpey and put it in the oven for a few minutes (or use a heat gun) to cure it.
2. get air-curing Miliput white or Aves Epoxy-sculpt from a hobby store or the internet, crazy glue the parts back together and fill the seam with the air-drying putty. If the hobby store doesn't have either, they usually have something they can recommend to fill the crack with. They also have a good selection of glues that are an alternative (but similar) to Crazy Glue which, IMO, work better.
Good luck and post pics!
