I found it

Pretty sure this is it....any fix except a new cable ?

Looks like you could drill a hole in it and put a pin through it ???

As a temp fix, yes. That's your issue. Maybe JB weld as well. You'll be replacing that anyway.

And crush / crimp it with vise grips?

The cable is broken. Count your blessings and replace it with a new one.
