W123 front suspension 'brace' repair/replace/weld?

Ive got a 240 with the usual rust and then some.

Any suggestions on repairing this? Do I remove the seam sealant somehow?

I intend to weld it...somehow...I'm still new to welding and body repair.

And...fabricate a new piece?

Im in the UK and this type of rust will fail the safety check
