From the "what is left" point of view...

There is a need to look close at what is connected to what appears to be the central damage area to see what other pieces may have been impacted.

I can give you my experiences when an NV-4500 blew up and the resulting collateral damage.

If you are in position of having to replace a number of critical items, consider upgrades that will build a better rig.

But, if you have a young'n that is going to be heavy foot, make them part of the solution to a trail-worthy rig.

Soak them for the $$$$ necessary to upgrade...
