Here's a couple of pics of the bend/tear and potential repair.
In the second pic the red arrow "A" shows the tear at the weak point.
The white triangle "B" shows the possible "gusset" solution.
Steve, I don't know that a gusset as drawn would do you any good without more I-beam behind it to support it.
I'm not an engineer (I'm not even a conductor...) so my opinion is worth exactly what you paid for it.
Maybe consider this as an alternative?
