is the frame and subframe ok ? I made the mistake of buying the bits to replace the damage then found out the frame was broken. Try and get it checked before spending too much on bits yot may not be able to use

Good to see it hasn't put you off. 8) You're a great rider, and we all make mistakes.

Sorry I can't help out mechanically, but want to say good luck getting it up and running ASAP. 8) . Take care,
