I believe your Tesla rep was thinking about Model Y's. The Y will soon include cast front chassis and there may even be a period of overlap where Texas Y's are cast while Fremont Y's are still stamped. All Y's have had cast rear chassis from the start so it's only the front that is changing.
But there are no announcements for casting anything on the 3 and I don't think there will be in the near future. Unlike the Y, the 3 was not designed with casting in mind so it would likely be very expensive to make such a major change. They'll probably do a major chassis/battery update in 3-5 years implementing castings but until then they have their hands/factories full with much more important things.
