You don't say which part has broken free, but in any case a repair is 
probably possible as long as there is something left to weld it to.  The 
tough part may be finding someone who is willing to be careful enough to get 
it correctly aligned while it is welded.

If all the good metal has been lost to rust then this becomes harder.
