For it to be worthwhile reinforcing has to be on the open end on the break and around the begining of the crack - around the rivet. I don't know such small weld is doable. Maybe a plate with a hole for the rivet and weld over the hole/rivet and around the edge of the plate. A few holes on the plate filled with weld will be worthwhile. Again this is such a small area to work with... Not to mention clearance concern after adding the plate.

Just remind me to NOT let you step on my foot at the Gathering in May. lol
On a serious note, I'm glad you got it fixed. The fracture is an anomoly, IMO. I don't think I'd ever bother reinforcing one prior to installation. Maybe if you drag race or do brutal shifting?
