house 1938 basement concrete toilet waste outlet is above the concrete 3/4 inches.
The flange looks to be of cast iron or some type of metal.
Anyway that is damage and I love some advice on putting a new flange on.
Picture is inclose

Did you ever see a toilet there?

Do you intend to leave the floor at that same level?

Is there a flange there now? Maybe you can ignore the remnants of that flange.

I am not a plumber. I would measure the ID. If close to 4 inch ID, and if the pipe went down far enough before turning, I would be thinking of using a Genova Products 75158S Universal Closet Flange with Stainless Steel Ring.

I think I would grind the pipe down some, using an angle grinder. I would clean the inside of the pipe a bit. I would put a spacer ring down around the pipe for the toilet flange to rest on. I would apply some silicone grease to the flaps and put the flange in place. I would attach with Tapcons.

More than one way to deal with this. Another option would be to clean out an area around the pipe, grind to height again. Put a compression cast iron toilet flange around the outside of the pipe.

It appears that there WAS a flange there at one time but it is busted off.
Would the part I marked in yellow be the remnants of that flange, and between there and the pipe would probably be lead?
