Some advice: Broken TT cable guide

Life is still hammering me, haven't had time for anything, sorry friends.

I could really use some drive-by advice though, if anyone is willing.

Picked up an immaculate '86 Corsa Mondiale via eBay, another Lawee bike joins the stable. Sadly, it arrived with shipping damage - a split cable guide, one is smushed, and the computer mount was FUBAR. Seller was cool about it, refunded 15% to cover repairs. All-stock except for the 105 shift levers, stem and bars.

Anyone have advice on repair of this guide? Paint is flawless, so I'd love something low-invasive like soldering, then a touch-up (or similar). Torching this bike would be nuts; I got a quote of $60 to replace guide and primer going that route, though.
