That's awesome! ish
Don't let me scare you into selling it. As far as I can tell, I'm the only one I have heard of that has had the bracket welds break.

 

I just went through this lovely maintenance task myself (and I am putting together a better post on my experience!), but I found my shield loose like yours and could not get a good view of the mounting bolt or feel the location with my ice-cold fingers in the parking lot! Knowing my 96 was sitting at home with all her guts, I grabbed onto it ..... and yanked! Broke it right off! But now I could see the bolts and removed my sensor - which was the assumption I was working on for my no start. Although I've sold it for years and had some in my box and never used it, I gambled on Gorilla glue to join the two pieces, lined up perfect and is still holding well. I had found a good illustration of the sensor under the Bosch system explanation, which helped but working on the ground in the cold was great fun. Even though harness wire was cracked - by the time I got it pulled off the sensor and up on top - sensor tested good (slight AC voltage when metal knife blade passed by it) - and harness repaired better than Rover (details later!), problem turned out to be inertia switch connector!
