Default Im an idiot please help

So i was rebuilding tthe steering and front suspension for my 1984 d150 and when taking off the upper control arm before i knew it i had an impact on the camber bolt to remove them. Buckle up because this is where the idiot behavior comes in. I impacted them off without realizing the cam bolt was bending the gusset for the camber bolts. I tried heating them up with a torch and bending back but as you can imagine it did not even resemble a 90degree when i was done. Any help with a replacement part would be greatly appreciated. thank you all

You can build it back up with weld then grind the inside to be smooth the match the cam. Second option is to drill out the spot welds from one in a junk yard then weld it back in yours.
