Yes, this can be replaced or repaired if it is hard wired into the back of the monitor. If you have a data cable that unplugs from the back of the monitor, you can purchase a new one. If it is integrated into the monitor it can be repaired. Both solutions can be done at the same site. I would look for one of the computer warehouse stores as they would carry a new data cable, and they would also be able to replace the DSUB connector on an integrated cable. They would just remove the old connector and attach a new one, not as easy as it sounds, as each individual wire attaches to each pin on the blue DSUB.

If the plug unscrews from the monitor, yes. The cord is less than $20. Make sure you get a monitor cable, not an extention. If the cord goes into the monitor (some of the older ones do), forget it and buy a new monitor.

If the pins are just bent, you can bend them back (hopefully without breaking them). That is usually hard-wired onto the board inside the monitor so you cannot easily replace it.

If the plug can't be pulled out of the monitor on the other side, your going to need a new monitor.
Sorry. XD.

Yes. Just run into any self-respecting computer builder's shop or big-name computer retailer.
