356 A front axel beam

Been perusing the web to find out if I can substitute a volkswagon front axle beam for the one in my 356 A project. Can't seem to find much if any information. The front axle beam in my project car is bent (the upper drivers side). Can the existing one be repaired by bending it back to shape or by cutting out the bent section and welding in a new section or does the whole assembly need replacement? The one obvious difference that I can see offhand is that the Porsche axle beam is welded to the frame whereas the VW beam appears to be bolted. I'll post pictures later.
