I've had some issues with this case / psu that I purchased early last year. I have currently moved to a new PSU and Case for my desktop and was going to attempt to repurpose this one. However, I looked at the PSU last night and saw what appears to be some sort of damage. I'm wondering if I should just go ahead and replace it? I'm referring to the portion on the left.

Yeah that's not cool. I would replace it with a Corsair or Seasonic. PSU's that come with inexpensive cases are typically low quality. I'm wondering what does the MB ATX power connection look like?

Yeah, looks like some of the pins burned. I wouldn't use it. Further use could lead to a fire.

Not sure what the MB power pins look like. I will take a look when I switch systems around tonight.
