Ask around at work or your neighbors for anyone that does woodworking either
as a sideline or a hobby. They can make a piece to fit from 8/4 stock
planed down to proper thickness. Some lumberyards that bill themselves as
"lumber and millwork" can do it also.
I'd cut it back as far as needed to get rig of the rot and glue and screw
the new piece in place. If painted it can be made pretty much invisible.
