My wastegate is messed up need ideas

Beautiful night, went out to take the wastegate off. I dont even know how to explain what happen to the wastegate. pictures are worth a thousand words. Tomorrow, will call a couple turbo places and see if I can get a replacement piece.

I wonder if they make freeze plugs that big. I think I might be able to put a washer on the other side for a fix. Clean up the jagged metal and sandwich it between washers. What you guys think?
