So no one can use the bits

Sorry pal, forgot to reply.
I reckon you'd struggle to find genuine 16i panel's, but i should think lower spec ones should be easier to come by.
How bad is it? Is It structurally sound?

Barely surface rust mate

I've seen much worse repaired!

It's up to you, I'd say it was worth saving, but there's a fair amount of work to do by the looks of it.
