Yes a competent welder can tig another piece on. Opinions vary but The last one I had done only cost $75 bucks, then I had to fair and paint. My guy ran water thru the lower to keep from burning up the seals. If it is broken off too close to the gearcase the Skegguard may not work. If that is the case I think they recommend taking all the guts out of the housing and replacing the entire skeg where it attaches to the bullet. They sell new skegs for that purpose.
