Engine divider support framing

[kylant]

I picked up a 210 that has bent, damaged engine divider support framing on the port side. I am wondering how I should go about fixing this? I have searched and read through all the relative posts, but is seems like most of the talk is about supporting the dividers themselfs.
I think I read somewhere that Nautique updated the framing to be stronger.
can anyone point me in the right direction?
thanks

Pictures might help see what exactly is bent and how to repair it.

I would call around and find commercial HVAC shop. Ask them where you can get that size in a H channel in aluminum.

Maybe take him piece of the actual board to verify but much easier. If you would have it, take the top and the bottom channels together. Factory divider channels keep popping screws when they flex a little bit.

So honestly, if you could replace the bed piece with each channel to hold the top and bottom, and even cut to halve it would be much much easier to put back in. Every year I spend way too much time wrestling full black pieces into submission :-)

Update.
went to a local fabricator. He said he could make new supports, but it was going to be about $400.
I got replacement ones from Nautique for $115. Will be installing shortly
