I never like cutting the original part but the shaping of new to old looks very jagged, are you tempted to make the jagged part more uniform by cutting out some of the broken part?
Take pictures as you go along if you have a chance.

Hi Ken
Good idea to use a pin, i hadn't thought of that because i'm going to use two component glue and it should be strong enough. Will not take anything off the original and try to make the new piece as fit as possible and fill the rest with glue and and ivory dust. Will take pictures during the process.
Best regards
Marc
