Nothing you can do about the holes, but penetrating epoxy may help save the wood from further decay. It could change the look a bit. This may not matter too much, as the wood shown has already been replaced. The metal skid strips have also been changed.

Yes, southern yellow pine, painted black. Not anything like mushy white pine.
