Thanks Jetmech.
I ended up coming to my senses and doing just as you described. It always takes me some time to come to my senses. The rib split horizontaly infront of the center spar(?). The section, of rib, behind the spar remained intact.The repair was easy and did the trick. I had to add a doubler on each side of the pass throug hole, in the rib, as to not block passage for the servo wire. It may not be cosmetecally pleasing, but atleast it's structurally sound. Function over form, right?
