exhaust pipe broke, behind cat 850 1997

Hello,

The exhaust pipe on my '97 850 N/A broke off right behind the catalytic converter. Otherwise, the corrosion doesn't look too bad. For now I am using some wire to hold the cat up, in order to reduce the stress on the other joints and to keep it from falling down...

Has this happened to others' 850s? I am kinda hoping this can just be welded back together?


I'd appreciate any comments on how to handle this. Just want to make sure I am not sold a bigger repair than it really needs.

Thanks.
