Need Some Help Identifying Transom Plate - Alpha1 Gen 2

[AMMO DAWG]

Hoping for a little help, I need to replace the transom plate on my 2006 Sea Ray 185 with an Alpha 1 Gen 2 Outdrive. As I was cleaning up my transom getting ready to install the engine I noticed a crack in the ear that houses one of the large bolts holding the power steering ram. When I pulled on it it cracked off. All I can figure is it was over torqued in the past. When I look in the Mercruiser online catalog for that year group I see three part numbers listed, 4411748, 8M0095951 and 8M0114816. I searched for a part number on mine and all I find is a circle with 44996-C01, best I can tell. Attached are a couple pictures on mine, any help is appreciated. If anyone has one for sale also please let me know. Thanks in advance

Take it to a welding shop and have em put it back together. Easy stuff to weld up.

Without having your Transom assembly serial number to further check accuracy, All the part numbers you found seemed to have superseded to 8M0138839, https://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/30862/2686/60

Hover the mouse cursor arrow over the notes...Seems they had a design change a few times.. Not sure of the changes (maybe structural strengthening?) but 8M0138839 should be the latest and greatest that ought to work for your application.

44996-C01 is the casting number found on most Merc parts like these and generally speaking, if you search the casting numbers online/EBay, you can sometimes come up with a match from someone selling a used/takeoff somewhere except iboats forums as there isn't a used classified ads sub_forum here.

Edit: In searching the casting number it looks more like 44116-C to me? which if correct brings up a lot of for sale, https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2334524.m570.l1313&_nkw=44116-C&_sacat=0
