What I think I see is a series of very irregular holes. Maybe that's just tar or 
shadows or ???. If the only hole there is the drain hole, that's okay.

I'm in Madison, WI, which is not that far away, and I have 2 Squareback IRS 
rear subframes that would make good replacements. Swapping in would be 
heavy work, but it wouldn't be fiddly. It all depends on how much energy you 
have.

If you want to try repairing that hole, I'd suggest tightening a bolt and washer 
in the correct position and welding the washer in place to correct the 
elongated hole..
