First thing I'd do is get it right back to bare metal/ rust so you can see the extent of the rot.
If that means getting the whole frame blasted so be it.
If you know someone with a scrap frame which could be pillaged for a repair section it would make life very easy.
Yes, even then I would think about a reinforcing plate of some kind, unless you are very confident in the welded repair.
It's not something you hear of much these days but my frame was sprayed with zinc and that seems to put a stop to further corrosion.
