Default 1973 65h evinrude mounting bracket broke

hey guys, the bracket broke on the left side of the motor. its kind of hard to explain, the bracket sticks up off the transom about 2 inches and it broke right under where it turns. can it be welded or do i need to replace the whole thing.thanks.

welding would be free.a buddie of mine is a welder with his own shop. and buying a new one would mean takeing a lot of stuff apart.if it were welded would it still be as strong as it was?and can it be welded?
