Wouldn't be too hard to fix you'd need to find another connector from a similar motherboard I'd imagine then just desolder and replace

As far as I can see the USB connector hasn't changed in any revision - any old one would do

If there's a console repair shop in your area they're bound to have boards that are cooked and unfixable. You could ask in there
