You may be able to weld it but you run the risk of heat stress cracking.
You may want to think about the Unconventional Alternative. Belzona. Belzona makes a unique material called Belzona 1111 (Super Metal). I have repaired many pieces of heavy equipment with this material and have had nothing but excellent results.
From the description of your problem, you may be able to repair it without major dissasembly.
Contact Belzona at www.belzona.com. They can put you in touch with the nearest Belzona technical consultant. Or you may want to call their HQ in Miami, Florida at 305-594-4994. Tell them that Clay Story told you to call. By the way I am located in Kansas.

You might be able to weld it, but it will require significant preheat to minimize the post weld stress. There are also companies that can heat treat the assembly after welding, so you might contact them to see the rod and other critical items they suggest. My weld procedure book is in storage, or I could give you a copy of what is sugested. I am only familiar with Belzona being used in areas where strength was not critical, so it might could be used here if it will be subjected to minimal stress or supported by the original material significantly. If the breakage occured under normal usage, and not some accident, I bet the repair will be subjected to some stress, so you might want to try to get it welded or replaced.

Just my 2 cents.
