Once the cause of overheating is found and fixed, I would coat the resistor with JB Weld. I have fixed chipped power resistors with it before. It can be brushed on like thick paint, and once cured can withstand over 500 degrees. It will be runny for an hour so watch for drips.
I would think you could even dab on some clean coarse sand to the surface before it completely sets to make it look more original.
