Fellow Dogs, I need help and advice

When my Shaft did its thing and broke on me (https://wilddog.net.za/forum/index.php?topic=205811.20), it managed to do some damage to the swingarm
Initial advice has been to try refit the new boot to it and see how it seals, the old boot leaves a massive gap, if the boot doesnt fit nicely the second bit of advice was to get it welded up ti rebuild the lost metal and then machined to get the groove back.
Alternatively get another one, there must be hundreds of these lying around surely, I dont think they get broken all that often

Advice please chaps
