If it's clean, araldite might hold it but be sure to give it ages to cure.  Once cured it's probably stronger than the aluminium itself.  It would at least get you going until a new part can be found at the right price.

There is a lot of bending moment on that part so i doubt araldite would hold but a good tig welder should be able to sort it
