front plate water damage
 

This is my first time rebuilding, upon disassemblely and cleaning i noticed that the front plate had failure in two spots. easy question is it worth trying to repair or should i seek a new plate. i am definitely on a budget but would like everything to be copacetic of some sort. its an s4 6-port NA thanks for you time in advance!

Don't waste your time trying to repair that, it won't hold, hit up the classifieds here or ebay etc for a replacement thats still within spec

don't bother wasting your time just replace it

Thanks...it's like you finally open the engine up and everything looks good. Then the last piece of the puzzle is shot. I'll get looking for a good one, if any one sees this and has one pm me!

That blows.I just cracked open a six port a week ago with the same problem.
