Too much sun the other day. How about "busbar". Yes its replacable, the whole assembly, connected to plastic keepers which are connected to metal brackets, are connected to the back of the box with screws. I stand corrected.
Yes may just have to replace the panel, just seems like a waste to replace with only a single damaged part. Kinda like taking a car to a mechanic that says you need a new engine since your starter is bad. I'm not trying to recondition a cb (whatever that is, clean it?)
