Hood Fix?

This is just a quick sketch of what I suspect is going on inside.

Thanks Dan, that looks good. This is what I actually took out a factory hole on the outside rib near the front of the hood. It was curled up in a ball and I had to hold while cutting it. I got the big part out pretty easily then got the other piece out with a magnet. I tried to straighten it, but it wants to break. Tomorrow I'll work on getting the "capture" out which is spot welded to the rib better the mounting holes/slots
