Broken gearshift - stick snapped @ weld (pics included)

Jumped into my '93 900 last week and went to take 'er out of reverse and the gearshift lever snapped right off at the weld! After driving home using a torx screwdriver to shift only when absolutely necessary, I did some research on the bulletin board, but didn't find a solution (other than methods of driving the impared car). A friend of mine is a welder and offered to help, but I'm leery of what I'll encounter when I yank out the guts at the base of the mechanism. Would someone please take a look at the pictures I've posted and suggest a course of action? I'd like to consider replacing the damaged part(s), but I'm not sure what part(s) to ask for, where to find them or how much it might cost.
