Get the head welded, fixed and have them set the squish for your set up. I buy torn up heads for guys all the time and have them rebuilt with different ccompression and corrected squish if i have their cylinder on hand. That way they can test a better head and a basic stocker. 2 stroke heads unless cracked are almost always better to rebuild and set up to your bike.

That can be cleaned up in a lathe, no need for welding. I have a repaired a couple with very similar damage.
