Wondering if anyone has suggestions to fix and shore up this leg that gave out.

So far I’m considering;

Not possible and replace chair.

Use slightly longer screws but there’s not much length left without seriously risking cracking IMO.

Filling the Holes and redrilling the screws back in, but not sure how durable this fix would be safety wise

Drilling wider holes filling those holes with short dowels and screwing into those instead.

I’m not very experienced, and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to safely repair this.
