I haven't seen butterfly joints used even though it's a viable repair, but have seen metal ribs screwed across cracks which were either set into slots milled across the crack or just screwed to the surface and left proud.

I don't like the look of that crack, but it's good to see if it can be fixed. I'd look for a donor clarinet - probably one with a broken lower joint socket or tenon but with a good top joint and transplant that onto your clarinet.
