I’d say squirt some CA glue on it. It is a patch job but will help stabilize
it possibly for several more years.

Don’t use accelerator, just let it soak in. Come back in a day or so to
tune. Lower tension some on each pin first as you tune. You may here a
little ping if the wire was bonded to the bridge top.

If this is a low end older piano, I agree - leave it alone and monitor (for
increased cracking and tuning stability) - it may stay that way for decades.
However, this IS a very odd looking low end of a bass bridge! Can I assume
this is the bass end of the long bridge?

What kind of piano is this? Age? Overall condition? And who's Waldo, let
alone where?

piano IS tunable.

Jason,

You say it is tunable. The pic shows there is adequate side-bearing.

Recommendation: Leave it alone.
