Wisconsin | I might try welding it. If you have the broken parts, grind clean both sides, weld with nickel rod, very slowly to keep it cool, grind to finish. If you don't have the parts, butter up that edge with nickel, use carbon or copper for a backer, then finish with whatever, again slowly to keep it even temps. The water will help it cool fast, it won't take horribly long.
Obviously make sure that valve is closed, and plug the port with something before welding.
I might try that even if a used head was available.
