Have you viewed it from the backside?

My concern would be if the metal has rusted and become too thin to get a good weld on. If that is the case you may have to piece in some sheetmetal to get a good repair. Fortunately for you that isn't a commonly damaged or rusted area so if you wanted to replace it with OE sheetmetal, someone, somewhere has a rough fender that would have the piece you would need.
no, t has not been repaired there before. the back side shows no repairs.
