If you are on about modifying for a 2.0 engine, then the cut out section in the chassis leg is for the alternator pulley. Since there is an alternator on just one side of the engine, then just one chassis leg needs chopping about.

Please explain, what exactly are you trying to do? Do you need to replace rotten chassis legs or something?

trust me, you don't want to see a pic.. the rest of the car is pretty good, & it amazed me that it hadn't sunk at the back, but there was no metal there

Get that all cut out, Leave about an inch of the side walls, got to a engineering place and get them to bend you come 3mm thick steel in the same shape. Weld it in.
