I'm not so sure it is salvageable, as the bit on the header pipe needs to be removed in one piece without bending it, which is going to be bloomin difficult, then will there be enough material there to weld it?

You won't be able to do it in situ, so it'd probably easier to get a 2nd hand rear header pipe and after market end can, or a 2nd hand OEM end can?
