It could probably be welded and re-machined. I see where it’s broken. Unless you can do it yourself or have a close friend that can do it, that repair will likely be more costly than a decent parts motor. I have one of these motors but I have not had it apart yet to repair it. I’m trying to figure out what punched the circle out. Is there a shoulder on the prop shaft that punched it? These motors show up for sale from time to time. If you don’t already have an extra one for parts you probably should have anyway if you are trying to get it back to good running condition. Maybe finding a motor for a parts donor is the best bet. Just my 2 cents.
