ive got a old optiplex gx400 lying around with the case falling apart. i would like a new case for this machine, are there any that fit this model? even a old case?

if not then i will probably have to modify a new one.

Any case should work for it.
 
Most dell cases are BTX format, this is normally a problem when trying to install an ATX mobo into that case.

I think most newer cases come with mounting holes for ATX and BTX, so you should be alright.

No they aren't...BTX was abandoned in late '06. Their new cases are all more-or-les like this inside:

However, TS's computer appears to be some sort of oddball proprietary form factor:
