You've got this.
Here is a video I made showing how I tackled my roof damage on my coach project mentioned above. The underlying aluminum was mangled pretty bad. I just cut out the worst of it and replaced with new aluminum scabbed in pieces.

If you don't care if it looks perfect, this should be an easy repair. I would second what A930Rocket and rfeurst911sc suggested above and just beat it somewhat straight, cut out the bad sections of the roof and then patch with new aluminum patches and rivets. Maybe seal the patch edges and rivets with rv sealant roof sealant.
