Sorry to see the ring gear damaged.
There is not easy fix. Complete clutch job down to the pressure plate.
Ring gears are very common on eBay or just do a WTB on the Pelican parts wanted forum.
Visually bad but it may not affect the starter.

It may have been the result of the "Gorilla" method of a flywheel lock. Shove a metal screwdriver or slim chunk of steel into the starter hole between the ring gear teeth and housing. Fasten with a big vice grips. Cross your fingers the teeth do not break off....
