Same issue
I have the same repair undergoing.
Was the parts you buy new or used. I cant reqognize the frame in in the parts catalog (EPC), or more precicly, that the frame could be bought seperatly from the wheel whell.
Any pictures

bought a used front frame clip for $500.00 it wasn't a SL I think most "107" frames will work.
Only needed front 12". Shop was able to cut out and re-weld with only removing radiator.
