Default VH 20ga ruptured barrel. Parts gun?

VH 20ga O frame, the left barrel is ruptured just past the forcing cone. The rest of the gun frame, buttstock, forearm are all in good order or at least appear to be. Question; is this a total loss and now just a parts gun or is worth or possible to source a set of 20ga barrels and have them fitted? I do not have any knowledge on how or when the rupture occurred. I’m hoping to rescue the gun before it ends up in a trash can. I know the it will never be as valuable as when it was original but maybe it could be a good shooter unless it is cost prohibitive. The serial number was not listed in the serialization book. The VH was in with a bunch of guns purchased in an estate so I’m looking at offering something for it but not much, I’ve never ventured down this type of road before, just would hate to see it end up in a trash heap if it is still useful.
