The exterior handle on my car has broken off. It's a flush fitting lift up
type about 4" long. It appears to be made of 'pot' metal.

A new assembly isn't too expensive, but doesn't come ready painted - it's
colour coordinated with the body. And having it painted triples the
price...

The clean break is near enough a straight line along the entire length.
What would be the chances of repairing it with epoxy etc - and if so which
one?

Why not paint a new one yourself? A few coats of lacquer on top, cut
back and job done.
