I would be tempted to clean it and caulk it with outdoor-rated silicone, injecting the caulk deep inside. The silicone caulk will seal and also provide great adhesion to hold the two sections together. Inject the caulk deep inside, then immediately after, wedge a side-ways 2x4 "T" against it to a tree or building. Then as the caulk is squeezed out, re-shape and caulk more for a water-tight seal and decent finished look. Keep the top of the "T" made of 2x4s pressing against the side of the rig for 48 hours to allow all the internal caulk to cure completely for best adhesion and long-lasting results.
Also check the roof joints to make sure no water enters there and out the side you are repairing.
If I am wrong, then go deeper researching the cause and ultimate solution involving serious disassembly.
