Personally I would grind some of the paint off, use the MIG to put 2 or 3 good tack welds on it and paint back over it after.
For anyone else, self tapping tech screws.

Don't breathe while you're doing that. It looks like there is some zinc left.

I'd TIG weld it in place.

No welder? Bend it back and two sheet metal self-tappers or bolt and two curved washers if you want extra strength.

Basically everything everyone else said is true. Could also use some pop rivets and washers if you want it to look a bit fancier.

Probably industrial glue, looks like that's what they used the first time. Maybe try and clean off the surfaces a bit first.

Wrap a coat hanger around it, twist it up tight with pliers.
