Does anyone know where to buy replacement parts you can cut the old rusted part out and weld a new one in? Or should I just bondo? What’s the best way to fix this?

I would clean it down to bare metal and see what you have. I just bondoed pin holes in mine. You could weld in patches using sheet metal in same thickness if damage is bad. I know a guy in So. Cal. that sells used parts if you want his info. He can ship and has a wrecking yard behind his house. I don't know of patch panels available but maybe so if they rust there. Here's mine before.
