Use the "delete entities" command in your Graphics tree and select all surfaces of the crevice. Is the crevice extends to the outside surface of a domain, you can use the "cap faces" command to seal it up and make the domain complete again.

Mark

I forgot to add, if the crevice is very small in comparison with the mesh size in the domain, then use the "form composite faces" feature on the Virtual Operations on the external faces to prevent the mesher from attempting to build elements into the cap of the crevice.
