Hey CRUX,
I would make the call and replace that pan if you can get one. That one is done and to actually fix it you should remove it anyway. I wouldn't go for a JB weld patch, that's just something you do to get you home or until you can remove and repair or replace.

Have a look around and see if you can find a pan, otherwise you will need to sand it down, clean it with reducer and use epoxy and cloth for a repair...doing that you might as well do the whole thing. But the prep is everything, it has to be taken down to bare shining metal, then wiped with reducer, and allow it to evaporate off. Then you know your bond will be good. Epoxy should be OK for heat on that pan as well and give you years of use....and you need to get that broken bolt sorted out.
