I ended up prepping the surface and inserted a screw into the zerk fitting threads to preserve them. I then laid down a layer of chopped strand and two layers of heavy roving woven over the entire face to cover cracks on both sides. I used peel ply in case I want to add more glass. I did not worry about cosmetics. Just want it functional for now. Added a new zerk fitting and pumped new grease into the rudder stock. I will pull the rudder next year and more closely inspect the structure.
