Default Storm Damaged Pine

Gave a quote for this one today, going back in the morning to do it.

Initial quote was for dismantling and removal of the broken section.
However, based on my current reading, it looks like half of the broken section was part of a co-dom, and looks like it probably ripped far enough into shared tissue to allow bacterial or vermin to get in and cause trouble.

Where would you suggest the cut be made, up where that union split, or down at the bottom, and take down that whole leaning section, even though part of it is still standing?

Hopefully I'll get some input on this before tomorow morning. If anyone suggests I take that entire log off at the base co-dom, please repost pic with a line showing where you'd cut.

I'd like to save as much of this thing as possible, but I'm not sure which approach is the best.
