Thanks for the photo!
Depends on how much time you want to put into this.
This can be repaired if you have someone in your area that is REALLY GOOD with a TIG welder.
Then using a Dremel tool and file...you can make the square cut-out and get the clip to clip on.
I am sure you can try to use something like JB Weld...but if this were in my shop...I would have to weld it and shape it so you could not tell it was ever missing.
I have fixed much worse than that on a wiper door and wiper grille.
