You could remove the offending area and replace it with some scrap
material that the grain matches the affected area's grain. Repairs
like that are often invisible.
If you're concerned about losing some character why not create a
"Dutchman" patch for that area. One that would repair the area but
not attempt to conceal it's existence. That way you could have your
cake and eat it too.
