Always better to repair than replace. How did it break?

Metal stitching is the traditional solution on cracked car components that are subject to high temperatures - probably similar fix on yours will be possible.

Just acquired it form a friendly fella - assume it was too hot. He has used it for 5 years or so bunged up with fire cement ๐Ÿ™‚
