Default Crashed Wankel 30: HELP!!!

After having a NIB a Wankel 30 for a while, last night I decided to install it on a plane. This morning I flew it, it had great power and was able to hover my 300 3D: What a jewel!!!

However, the day ended in a bad and sad note: The plane hit the only damned power pole I was doing a dead stick landing far from the field, the result is that the muffler hit with such force that it broke it's attachment point to the engine,,,, In fact: It's the little tube "thing" that protrudes from the engine casing.... Any sugestions???:::

-Can I run it like that? (but waht about the mess)
-Can I buy another casing? (but,,, do I need another rotor as well?)
-Can It be tig welded?
-Can I insert something it else from the inside? (reducing it inner diameter)

Any parts for sale?

Your sugestions are welcome. Thank you in advance.
