MI

Has anyone had success fixing a Marine Trader cleat and port comination,
or fo fixing bronze fittings in general. What process must be used?  The
cleat appears to be a very porous bronze and has a broken horn. They
cannot be replaced, and using the old one for a custom made mold and a
special casting is very costly. Need some advice on how to think outside
the box on this one. thanks,
